Summary
In this episode of Real Estate Jerky Daily, Ed Parcaut and Mike Kelly break down the latest jobless claims numbers, continued tension around the Strait of Hormuz, and what all of it means for mortgage rates. They also cover Freddie Mac's lower 30-year rate reading, stronger mortgage application volume, and a better-than-expected pending home sales report. The episode also dives into California's long-running housing shortage, why more units still have not solved affordability, and why Stanislaus County activity suggests buyers are still moving even in a noisy market.
