30-Year Mortgage Rates Just Hit a Critical Level — Should You Lock or Float?

Mortgage markets are sending mixed signals right now.

Oil prices are rising due to geopolitical tensions, which could push inflation higher, yet the U.S. jobs market remains strong, making it harder for the Federal Reserve to justify cutting interest rates.

Meanwhile:

• The 10-Year Treasury is moving
• The MBS market is selling off
• Mortgage rates are bouncing around key levels

So the big question for homeowners and buyers is simple:

Do you lock your rate now… or float and wait?

In today’s video, I break down exactly what’s happening in the bond market, inflation data, and mortgage pricing so you can make the smartest move.

If you're thinking about buying, refinancing, or just trying to understand where mortgage rates are heading next — this is the update you need.
