Interest Rates: Then vs. Now

 

Think today’s rates are high? Let’s put it in perspective 

 

In this week’s Fridays with Friends, we’re breaking down historical interest rates and what today’s market really means for buyers.

Rates aren’t what they were in 2020—but they’re not as scary as 1981 either! Tune in for some helpful perspective and buyer tips from our recent training
