The U.S. has more real-estate agents than any other country, by a wide margin. Photo: Getty ImagesThe way we buy and sell homes in the U.S. isn’t normal—at least not compared with the rest of the world.

☆ The Sales Pitch for an 8% Mortgage: Buy Now, Refinance Later—for Free
  + stars: | 2023-10-30 | by ( Veronica Dagher | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
The offers to refinance the mortgage on your home later often aren’t as attractive as they initially seem. Photo: David Paul Morris/Bloomberg NewsLenders have a proposition for home buyers who can’t stomach an 8% mortgage rate: Buy now, and refinance later for free. Lenders are making these offers because the market for mortgages cratered as the Federal Reserve raised interest rates to two-decade highs to tame inflation. ​ The average rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is 7.79%, according to Freddie Mac .

☆ Here’s What Retirement on a Boat or RV Looks Like in America
  + stars: | 2023-10-21 | by ( Anne Tergesen | Veronica Dagher | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Many Americans drop anchor in retirement, settling down near the beach or their adult children. Others leave their old latitudes behind and set sail on the highways or high seas. Nomadic life appeals to those who have the time and cash to make RVs or boats into mobile retirement homes. After years juggling careers and raising families, these aging Kerouacs and Magellans yearn for the freedom to explore new places while still young and healthy enough to make the trip.

Don’t just spend your time. We are born rich in time and then spend down our fortunes over the years. It may not grow like money in a bank account, but there are ways to get the most out of it. Researchers suggest thinking of time as something we invest—rather than "spend"—using our precious hours now for fulfillment and meaning that our future selves can draw from. Fran Caballero

☆ What Another Fed Rate Increase Means if You Want to Buy a House
  + stars: | 2023-05-03 | by ( Veronica Dagher | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Economists say the mortgage market has already priced in another Fed rate increase. Photo: Dustin Chambers/Bloomberg NewsHome buyers dreading another rate increase by the Federal Reserve on Wednesday can take heart: The move is probably already priced into current mortgage rates. The Fed is expected to raise interest rates another quarter-percentage point, lifting the benchmark federal-funds rate to a 16-year high as part of its continuing campaign to stamp out inflation. The Fed doesn’t set mortgage rates, but rate increases push up the yield on the Treasury note higher, which in turn pushes up the cost of a mortgage.
