Existing home sales, after the best-year in history across the Houston metro and best 12-months in 14 years nationwide, face a challenge in 2022 that can be summed up in two words: Interest Rates. The U.S. is staring in the face at the greatest level of inflation seen in 39 years. The Federal Reserve already announced a tapering of the $120 monthly of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities from banks that could be completed as early as March, setting the stage for the Fed to start ratcheting up rates at that time.
