Impact of lower interest rates on housing market

Lowering interest rates may not significantly motivate sellers but could boost buyer motivation leading to increased demand, competition, and price growth in the housing market. The decrease in rates could make homes more affordable, driving more people to buy homes, potentially increasing supply.
