What's Ahead for the
Housing Market?

5 housing trends for 2022: What’s ahead for mortgage rates, home prices, and demographic trends?
1. Mortgage rates will (probably) rise
Mortgage rates plunged in 2020. The average rate on a 30-year loan fell to an all-time low of 2.93 percent in January 2021, according to a national survey of lenders. Nearly everyone expects mortgage rates to climb in 2022.
How will that affect home sales and prices? The answer isn’t clear, but there are past examples of housing markets booming even as mortgage rates rose.
In the 1980s, mortgage rates soared as high as 18 percent, yet Americans still bought homes. In the 1990s, rates of 8 percent to 9 percent were common, and Americans continued snapping up homes. During the housing bubble of 2004 to 2007, mortgage rates were higher than they are today.
2. Price appreciation is slowing — finally
After an intense run-up, home prices seem to be cooling at last. The median price of homes sold by Realtors soared from $280,700 in March 2020, the start of the pandemic, to $362,800 in June 2021, an increase of 29 percent. However prices have held in the $350,000 range since then.
National Association of Realtors Chief Economist Lawrence Yun says home sales will take a breather after what he calls a “spectacular” housing market in 2020 and 2021. He expects home price appreciation of 2.8 percent in 2022, down from 14.7 percent in 2021 [...]

Whoever does your laundry will agree, there is nothing more frustrating than a cramped space with outdated laundry equipment. LG offers a look into the future and we love it! Introducing the new power packed WashTower. This little guy can sense load size, fabric type, and even how soiled an item of clothing is, automatically utilizing the ideal amount of detergent and wash style for gentle care.
The new washer also employs LG's steam technology to ensure clothes always come out refreshed and clean. The Smart Pairing feature sends information from the washer to the dryer to suggest the optimal drying cycle as well. Your clothes and linens will have never looked better. Now who wouldn't want to upgrade their laundry room for one like this?!
