The HGTV host “Flipping 101” Tarek El Moussa joins “Fox & Friends” to discuss the slight drop in mortgage rates and explain how it will have an impact on the real estate market.
The American housing market can move, and some real estate experts think that 2025 could offer new opportunities to buyers.
“I think this is a huge opportunity for buyers in the next 12 to 18 months,” said Tarek El Moussa de HGTV “Flipping 101” during an appearance “Fox and friends,” Tuesday.
“I don’t see an upcoming crash.”
According to the National Association of Real Estate Agents (NAR), 2024 had the lowest level of sales of existing houses since 1995. However, housing stocks increased by 5.1% in February compared to the previous month and from 17% from one year to the next. Mortgage rates, although still high, also fell slightly, with the fixed rate of 30 years on average 6.65% at the end of March.
El Moussa has recognized that if the inventory increases, the market is still not back to normal.
“They say it is deget, but if you look historically, we have even less inventory than a normal market,” he said. “The reason … it is [be]Cause the majority of people who have a mortgage today, the rates are so low that they cannot afford to move, and they cannot qualify to move. So what’s going on is that there is nothing available. “”
Asked about the impact of the new Trump administration, El Moussa rejected the idea that political leadership stimulates changes.
