In January 2021, the average cost for a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage in the U.S. was below 3%, it now sits above 7%.

Americans can’t afford homes, investors aren’t buying property, and economists see little relief ahead.

All this as surging mortgage rates and near-record home values have sparked an ‘affordability crisis.’

So, is the U.S. housing market stuck?

Ben Reinberg, the Founder & CEO of Alliance Consolidated Group of Companies, LLC. joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.

Israel strikes Tehran after Khamenei’s death; U.S. warns of prolonged conflict as tensions escalate in the Middle East.

Israel has launched a new wave of strikes on Tehran, following the reported killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei. U.S. President Donald Trump has warned the campaign could last up to a month, framing the operation as a move to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear capabilities.

Iran has retaliated with missile attacks, while its Revolutionary Guards claim responsibility for assaults on oil tankers in the Gulf. The escalating hostilities are already disrupting global shipping lanes and air travel, sending shockwaves through international markets.

With reports of the first U.S. casualties emerging and Washington declaring the Tehran operation a success, tensions across the Middle East are intensifying rapidly. The question now is how far this conflict could spread — and at what cost.
