City of LA looks to ban gas appliances in new resi developments
City of LA Looks to Ban Gas Appliances in New Resi Developments
by Dana Bartholomew, The Real Deal, 6/1/2022

Aspiring chefs in Los Angeles can toss aside their prized cast-iron skillets. The city aims to ban gas stoves in new residential developments.

Citing a global climate crisis, the Los Angeles City Council has passed a motion to banish most gas appliances in new construction, the Los Angeles Times reported.

The pending policy would result in new homes and businesses coming equipped with electric stoves, clothes dryers, water heaters and furnaces.

This week's avg 30-yr fixed-rate: 5.78%
Mortgage rates surged as the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage moved up more than half a percentage point, marking the largest one-week increase in our survey since 1987. These higher rates are the result of a shift in expectations about inflation and the course of monetary policy. Higher mortgage rates will lead to moderation from the blistering pace of housing activity that we have experienced coming out of the pandemic, ultimately resulting in a more balanced housing market.

Home Sellers Are Cutting List Prices as More Buyers Take Pause: 'The Market Is Not the Same'
by Andrew Khouri, Los Angeles Times, 6/14/2022

Home sellers are increasingly cutting their asking prices as buyers, constrained by higher mortgage rates and overall inflation, have become less willing to jump into the housing market at any cost.


The growing number of price cuts, a trend showing up in data from Southern California and across the nation, is one of the strongest signs yet that the previously red-hot market, fueled by low mortgage rates and all-cash bidding wars, is cooling.

What the Fed’s interest rate hike means for mortgages
What the Fed's Interest Rate Hike Means for Mortgages
by Kevin Schaul, The Washington Post, 6/16/2022

The rapid rise in mortgage rates means home buyers will need to pay significantly more for a home loan compared to even just eight months ago.

In November, a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, the most popular home loan product, was barely 3 percent. As the rate approaches 6 percent, the added cost to a 30-year mortgage is hundreds of thousands of dollars.

A jump in rates from 3 to 6 percent causes the lifetime cost of a standard 30-year fixed-rate mortgage to increase by more than half the price of the home’s price at sale.
