Interest rates shape affordability. When they rise, some buyers step back — but the serious ones stay. When they fall, buyer pools swell and competition spikes.
For Metro Detroit sellers, the key is adjusting strategy: emphasize your home’s value story, showcase energy-efficient features, and consider incentives like closing-cost credits if rates tick higher.
Remember, buyers buy payments, not prices. A small rate change can alter monthly costs more than you think - and positioning your home as “move-in-ready” helps buyers justify that payment even in tighter markets.
