Trapped by Low Rates: How the Mortgage Freeze is Reshaping Real Estate

In this episode of The Triniyah Podcast, we explore one of
the most pressing challenges in real estate today: the nationwide
shortage of existing homes for sale. While rising mortgage rates
often dominate headlines, it’s the freeze in listings—from
homeowners locked into ultra-low interest rates—that’s reshaping
the entire housing landscape.


We dive into the root causes of the inventory dilemma, including
why so many potential sellers are staying put, how this impacts
pricing and competition, and what it means for both buyers and
sellers trying to make decisions in today’s market. You'll hear
practical, actionable advice for navigating these
conditions—whether you're a buyer feeling squeezed by low
inventory or a seller wondering if now is the right time to list.


We also answer the most common questions we’re hearing:
Should you wait to buy until rates go down?
Can you afford to sell and move into something new?
Is it still worth starting the homeownership journey if you’re
currently renting?


Plus, we share why strategic planning over the next 12 to 24
months could be the key to turning today’s market challenges into
future opportunities—and why working with the right real estate
team can make all the difference.
