How Temporary Buydowns Are Drawing Buyers Back Into the Market

Mortgage rates eased recently, yet many buyers remain hesitant due to uncertainty and rate expectations.
Temporary buydowns offer lower initial payments, helping buyers enter the market more comfortably.
Sellers are increasingly open to concessions, covering buydowns and closing costs in negotiations.
Lenders focus on long-term wealth building versus renting, not just headline interest rates.
As higher rates normalize, more buyers and sellers are re-entering the housing market.
