“The past few months have brought lower mortgage rates, and it has helped boost buyer confidence,” HAR Chair Shae Cottar with LPT Realty said in a statement. “We are mindful that economic uncertainty and the current government shutdown could impact the market in the weeks ahead—particularly since new National Flood Insurance Program policies cannot be issued right now.
