Why Dunedin?
It’s a process. It can start innocently enough with a visit that includes a stroll through downtown, a cone of orange soft-serve ice cream at the boxcar, a cold craft beer at a brewery, a bike ride on the trail, the faint sound of a bagpipe, the soothing rush of the surf, the sun on your face and the sand between your toes. You feel the energy. You feel the sense of place. You feel you have stumbled upon SOMETHING SPECIAL here. You want to be a part of it.
It then proceeds. You find your perfect home. You feel safe and comfortable, surrounded by what you need to nourish your body and soul. You feel that you BELONG. You feel you are HOME.
Then it happens. “Dunedin” goes from being “the city where I live” to “my town”, and ultimately, “MY DUNEDIN”. Those that live here know. Those that do not, please come. Explore. Take it in. We invite you to be a part of SOMETHING SPECIAL.

October 5, 2026 - Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend. Unfortunately, mortgage rates continued their difficult stretch last week, reaching levels we haven't seen since late 2023.
Top tier 30 year fixed rates started the week around 7.375%, reached approximately 7.625% on Wednesday, and ultimately finished Friday around 7.500%.
What's been particularly frustrating about the recent move is that there isn't one simple headline we can point to anymore. The market is simultaneously reassessing inflation, economic growth, future Fed policy, and supply and demand within the bond market. Even a sizable drop in oil prices early last week wasn't enough to provide much relief.
We finally saw a meaningful improvement on Thursday, and Friday's weaker than expected jobs report initially looked like it might continue that momentum. Unfortunately, the details of the report showed a labor market that remains fairly resilient, and the early improvement in bonds eventually faded.
The takeaway right now is that the market appears to need more convincing evidence before rates can meaningfully reverse course. A single weaker report or favorable headline may help temporarily, but sustained improvement will likely require inflation to cool further, the economy to show clearer signs of slowing, or geopolitical developments to take pressure off energy prices.
There's no question that rates in the mid 7% range are challenging and higher than any of us would like. For some context, though, we're still below the levels reached in October 2023, when conventional 30 year rates approached 8%.
We're in a tough stretch, but rate environments don't move in one direction forever. For now, we'll continue watching for the catalyst that can finally shift momentum back in our favor.
I hope you have a great week and win the day!
