Here are four pieces of market content, ready to post. Sources are linked under each one so you can stand behind the numbers if a client asks. ⚠️ One note before you post. These work because they are calm. Do not add urgency to the end. No "call me before rates move," no "don't wait." The reason someone stops on these is that they sound like information instead of a pitch, and one pushy line at the bottom undoes the whole thing. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1️⃣ 📉 Mortgage rates just hit their highest point in almost a year. The typical payment just hit a three-month low. Freddie Mac put the 30-year fixed at 6.66% on July 30, up from 6.58% the week before. In that same window, Redfin reported the median U.S. housing payment at $2,575, the lowest in three months. The reason is that sellers' median asking prices dropped to their lowest level in a year. One caveat worth saying out loud: that payment was calculated at 6.58%, so the newest rate is not fully baked into it yet. The rate is one input. Price is the other. Watch the payment, not the headline. 🔗 Freddie Mac PMMS, July 30, 2026 — freddiemac.com/pmms 🔗 Redfin, July 30, 2026 — redfin.com/news/housing-market-update-demand-slows-rates-hit-high-level ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 2️⃣ ⏱️ 41 days to sell a house last month. 41 days a year ago. Nothing changed. That is from Redfin's July 30 report, covering the four weeks ending July 26. Not faster. Not slower. Identical. Homes sold at 99% of list on average, and 28% still sold above asking. The market did not get harder. Priced right and shown well, a house moves the same as it did last summer. 🔗 Redfin, July 30, 2026 — redfin.com/news/housing-market-update-demand-slows-rates-hit-high-level ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 3️⃣ 🏢 The condo loan process quietly changed on August 3. One question up front handles it. For conventional loan applications dated on or after August 3, Fannie Mae has retired its Limited Review process and Freddie Mac has retired Streamlined Review. That comes from Fannie Mae Lender Letter LL-2026-03 and Freddie Mac Bulletin 2026-C, both issued March 18. Most projects with more than 10 units now require a Full Review, meaning the lender examines the association's budget, reserves, insurance, delinquencies, litigation, and special assessments.
