January 13, 2026 | Connecticut Housing Market Update | Presented by   ReadySetLoan™ The Connecticut housing market ended 2025 with steady momentum. Home sales increased modestly, prices remained elevated, and inventory stayed tight — conditions that continue to shape the experience for Connecticut homebuyers heading into 2026. For buyers navigating today’s market, one reality stands out: flexibility matters . That includes not only where you buy, but what kind of home you’re

January 2026 | Housing Market | Presented by ReadySetLoan™️ Over the past few years, many Connecticut homebuyers—especially first-time buyers—have felt like they’re competing against more than just other families. Large investors, private equity firms, and real estate investment trusts have increasingly entered the single-family housing market, often buying homes in bulk and turning them into long-term rentals. A new proposal from former President Donald Trump aims to change

January 2026 | Connecticut Housing Insight | Presented by ReadySetLoan™️ Connecticut homeowners are sitting on something incredibly valuable right now: historically low mortgage rates locked in over the past few years. The problem is those same low rates are keeping many people stuck. A growing concept known as mortgage portability could offer a smarter path forward, especially for Connecticut buyers looking to move without giving up the financing they worked hard to secure.

November 13th, 2025 | Market Insights | Presented by ReadySetLoan™️ Markets were brimming with optimism that the Fed would cut short-term rates in December. Just a week ago, that probability was as high as ~91%. Now, those odds have dropped to around ~70% as inflation remains stubborn and internal dissent grows. This change is sending ripples through mortgage markets and borrower expectations. Why the optimism is cooling Even though there was a recent rate cut, some Fed offic

November 12, 2025 | Market Insights | Presented by ReadySetLoan™️ The recent election outcome in New York City has stirred talk of residents reconsidering their living arrangements. With the new city leadership and shifting policies, some New Yorkers are exploring suburban or nearby states — and Connecticut is firmly in the conversation. While the exodus may not be massive, the ripple effects could impact the housing and mortgage landscape for local buyers and homeowners. The

November 9, 2025 | Market Insights | Presented by ReadySetLoan™️ Mortgage demand is slowing again, even after rates dipped to their lowest point of the year. That brief moment of relief sparked some activity — but as rates crept back up, buyer enthusiasm cooled fast. For Connecticut homebuyers and homeowners, this is a real-time reminder that the mortgage market moves faster than the headlines — and that being prepared is far more valuable than waiting for the perfect moment.

November 6th, 2025 | Market Insights | Presented by ReadySetLoan™️ More home-purchase deals are collapsing before closing as economic uncertainty grows. Nationwide, roughly 15% of pending home sales were canceled in September , up from 13.6% a year earlier. Buyers are increasingly pulling out due to job worries, tighter budgets, and shifting confidence. For Connecticut, where affordability is already stretched, this trend highlights the importance of preparation, strategy, an

November 6, 2025 | Market Trends | Presented by ReadySetLoan™️ The dream of homeownership is still alive — but it’s arriving later in life. New data shows first-time homebuyers now make up a smaller portion of the market than ever before, while their average age has climbed to a record high. High prices, rising rates, and shrinking inventory have made it harder for younger buyers to get their foot in the door, fundamentally reshaping what “first-time buyer” means in today’s h

November 5, 2025 | Mortgage Insights | Presented by ReadySetLoan™️ Mortgage rates hovering in the low-6% range are breathing some fresh air into an otherwise tight housing market. While affordability is still a challenge, buyers are finally seeing a window of opportunity. The key now is understanding how to make the most of it — from timing your purchase to evaluating loan options and assistance programs that can help turn “maybe someday” into “let’s do this.” 📉 Rates Are Ea

November 2025 | Mortgage Insights | Presented by ReadySetLoan™️ The Return of a Risky Loan Type As mortgage rates remain elevated, many buyers are turning again to adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) to reduce initial costs.
