With Rate dropping Affordability is at the best level in 2.5 Years. The Shutdown is having an affect.

Market Update: Rolling With the Punches

If you’re in the middle of a transaction, it’s a good idea to check in with your lender and agent. Make sure the seller understands that any delays aren’t deal-breakers just a part of the process right now.
