The market trend for Nevada, Texas is considered to be transitioning from a seller’s market to a
balanced market due to the increase in mortgage rates since the first quarter of 2022 and the war
in Ukraine adding upward pressure on inflation. Although, the Fed doesn't set up mortgage rates,
Fed's actions have a ripple effect. A higher rate for banks tends to make borrowing more
expensive for consumers affecting eventually long-term interest rates (such as 10-year Treasury
bond). While mortgage rates typically follow the trend of the 10-year Treasury yield, the rate on
the conventional 30-year mortgage also tends to rise.
