Been noticing mortgage rates creeping up again lately, probably due to all the recent economic ups and downs. Was planning to buy a place soon, but now I'm second-guessing myself. Is it smarter to hold off and see if rates dip again, or is this just the new normal? Kinda stressing about timing this right, you know... Curious what others think or if anyone else is in the same boat.

I'm in a similar spot, and honestly, timing the market perfectly is almost impossible. Instead, maybe run some numbers—compare monthly payments at current rates vs. slightly lower/higher scenarios. If the difference isn't huge, locking in now might save you stress long-term...

Been there, done that, got the stress-induced gray hairs to prove it. Honestly, crunching numbers is your best bet—if the difference is just a latte or two per month, lock it in and sleep easy. Life's too short for mortgage anxiety...
