By Michael | July 25, 2013

After a robust start to 2013 there has been some cooling in the market. Lawrence Yun, chief economist with the National Association of Realtors sums it up best with an expectation that interest rates will close in on 5% by mid-2014.

There are 17.8 renter households with sufficient income to buy a $177,000 home at a 3.5% interest rate compared to 14.9 million households at a 5% interest rate.
