Mortgage rates rose to 6.57% on Wednesday following a hotter-than-expected inflation report (PPI), marking the highest level since late March. The increase—up from 6.42% last week—comes as the spring housing market shows signs of recovery, with home showings up 8% year-over-year in April.

However, the rebound faces a major hurdle: low inventory. Available homes remain 11-12% below normal levels, keeping competition fierce. While rates have eased slightly from last year’s 7% peak, they’ve climbed about 40 basis points since February, reducing buyer purchasing power by roughly 4%.

Despite some stabilization in bond markets by day’s end, lenders held rates steady at 6.57%, keeping pressure on affordability. For now, the market is active—but limited supply and rising rates mean buyers and sellers need to move quickly.
