Why have interest rates jumped to a 7-year high?

Interest rates for a 30-year fixed rate mortgage have climbed from 3.95% in the first week of January up to 4.61% last week, which marks a 7-year high according to Freddie Mac. The current pace of acceleration has been fueled by many factors.

The huge risk home buyers take when they waive inspections

When you're trying to make your offer as attractive as possible, skipping the inspection may seem like a good idea. Here's why it's not.
