The Regan Team Home Loan Group Weekly Real Estate Round up – August 12 2026

This week’s market update breaks down the latest economic and housing data—and what it could mean for mortgage rates moving forward.

We look at the July jobs report, including changes in employment, the unemployment rate, wage growth, and major revisions to previous months. We also review the latest Consumer Price Index numbers to see where inflation stands and how the bond market is reacting.

On the housing side, we cover July existing home sales, inventory levels, home prices, days on market, and the share of first-time buyers. Finally, we take a look at recent bond market movement and what it could signal for interest rates and mortgage pricing.

Stay informed on the economic trends that can impact homebuyers, homeowners, and the real estate market.
