Lower Mortgage Rates Ahead: Jason Ruedy Says 2026 Could Spark a Major Shift in Pittsburgh Real Estate

With 30+ years of experience, “The Home Loan Arranger” says lower rates could boost demand, unlock equity, and transform Pittsburgh’s housing market by 2026

PITTSBURG, PA, UNITED STATES, October 22, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Jason Ruedy, also known as The Home Loan Arranger and ranked among the top 1% of loan originators nationwide, is once again making headlines with a bold prediction for the future of the U.S. housing market. With more than two decades of experience in the mortgage and refinance industry, Ruedy anticipates that mortgage interest rates will begin to decline by spring 2026 — a shift that could reignite the Pittsburgh housing market, boost homebuyer demand, and bring much-needed relief to both buyers and sellers across Allegheny County.

📉 A Pittsburgh Market Ready to Rebound

According to Ruedy, the Pittsburgh real estate market — like many across the country — has faced persistent challenges in recent months, including stagnant home prices, slowing home sales, and an increase in listing inventory. Many potential sellers remain hesitant to put their homes on the market amid uncertainty around Federal Reserve interest rate policies, while would-be buyers are waiting for more favorable conditions before taking the leap into homeownership.

“The market has been stuck in neutral,” explains Ruedy. “High mortgage rates and ongoing economic concerns have caused many homeowners in Pittsburgh to delay selling, worried they won’t get the returns they expect. But that’s about to change.”

📈 Why 2026 Could Be a Turning Point for Pittsburgh

Ruedy predicts that with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s term ending in 2026, a shift in monetary policy is likely — one that could usher in lower mortgage rates and inject new life into the housing and refinance markets. He believes those rate cuts will spur demand, encouraging more first-time homebuyers in Pittsburgh to enter the market while motivating existing homeowners to refinance their mortgages or cash out home equity to consolidate debt, invest, or cover major expenses.

“Lower mortgage rates mean greater affordability, more listings, and more movement,” says Ruedy. “We could see inventory loosen up, bidding wars return, and homeowners feel confident listing their properties again. It will also open the door for many buyers who have been priced out of the Pittsburgh housing market.”

Those who plan ahead now will be best positioned to take advantage of the coming shift.”
