With the Fed's 0.25% rate cut, buyers now have even more purchasing power. Pair that with today's new price reductions, and the potential savings are huge! Here is approximately what a .25% decrease could mean for your monthly savings (in conjunction with some amazing new prices!), based on a conventional 30 year loan* —
1. 301 BROAD STREET, BEAUFORT
Old List Price: $1,399,900 — New List Price: $1,299,900
The $100,000 drop in price instantly trims about $600 off the monthly payment. Add in the recent 0.25% dip in rates, and buyers are looking at another potential $275/month in savings. Together, that's nearly $875 every single month — or more than $10,000 a year — that stays in your pocket!
2. SUN BAY CONDOS 10, PINE KNOLL SHORES

3. 516 E GREAT EGRET WAY, BEAUFORT

This demand is expected to grow — and that could mean more buyers for your home. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) estimates that if 30-year fixed mortgage rates move down to ~6%, about 5.5 million more U.S. households could afford a median-priced home. Of those, around 10% (≈ 550,000) might actually make a purchase in the next 12-18 months. Sellers — if you've been sitting on the sidelines, now just might be the perfect time to reach out to your broker.
