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 26, 2026 - Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend. Mortgage rates continued trending in the right direction last week, reaching their lowest levels in more than a month.

Top tier 30 year fixed rates started the week around 7.43%, improved to approximately 7.30% on Thursday, and ultimately finished Friday at 7.33%. That puts us roughly 0.30% below the highs we experienced earlier this month, which is certainly a welcome improvement.

What's interesting is that the recent movement has been driven less by traditional economic reports and more by concerns surrounding the technology sector, particularly the enormous amount of spending and borrowing associated with artificial intelligence.

As investors become more concerned about the sustainability of those investments, we've seen money move away from technology stocks and into bonds. Increased demand for bonds generally helps push mortgage rates lower. Thursday was a great example. Disappointing earnings and renewed concerns surrounding AI-related investments triggered significant selling in technology stocks, while mortgage rates improved approximately 0.10% in a single day.

Friday brought a small increase as technology stocks stabilized, but rates still finished near their lowest levels since late September. The encouraging part isn't just that rates have improved. It's that we've now managed to hold onto much of that improvement for several weeks, something we struggled to do during the recent run higher.

Of course, it's still too early to assume the worst is behind us. Much of this improvement is tied to changing investor sentiment, which can shift quickly. Inflation, economic growth, and future Fed expectations will continue playing important roles as well.

For now, though, we're in a considerably better position than we were just a few weeks ago. Hopefully, the recent stability is a sign of more favorable things to come.

I hope you have a great week and win the day!
