You're right about rates, they've really jumped in the last few weeks. I wanted to make a note about about home prices. While the average & median price went up in May, that doesn't mean prices on specific homes went up. Those measures give more of an indication on the market pressure but is not a direct correlation of appreciation/depreciation. You'll see the media use median value to make statements about appreciation/depreciation percentages but that's inaccurate. Steven, thanks for the comment.

With mortgage rates up to 5.87 (when I applied for a GFE just a few weeks ago it was 4.74) and home prices going up, anyone who waited is getting pushed out of the market. And good homes are going faster - The only home I saw that I wanted to make an offer on sold in 7 days at 180k. For first time homebuyers, it is looking like we missed the boat (the best one anyway).
