Weekly insight:  Buyers took advantage of the heat wave over the last week and pushed showing activity to new highs. Showing activity over the last week has nearly eclipsed the peak from all of 2019, which didn’t occur until early May. Activity continues to skew toward the higher price points. Showings were down on listings under $250K but up by double digits across all other price brackets. Seller activity remains a pain point, with frustratingly few new listings entering the market. Rates on a 30-year fixed mortgage crept up slightly to around 3.02 percent, which is barely above the 50+ year low of 2.65 percent.
