Although predictions of 9% mortgage rates remain speculative, experts Jason and Michael Zuber note that such a drastic increase would severely cripple home construction and halt existing real estate turnover. Despite these challenges, the housing market would be stabilized by a persistent inventory shortage and a lack of distressed owners, since a vast majority of current borrowers secured low rates during the pandemic. For current property owners and investors, high rates actually offer significant advantages by strengthening the rental market, driving up rental income, and encouraging...
