A Roaring Start to 2024: Mortgage Loan Applications Surge by 9.9% in the First Week

As we step into the promising landscape of 2024, the real estate market is already buzzing with activity. The first week of the year brought a significant surge in mortgage loan applications, signaling a robust start for both homebuyers and the housing market as a whole. In this blog, we'll delve into the factors behind this 9.9% increase and what it means for prospective homeowners and the real estate industry.

 

Historical Context: To understand the significance of the 9.9% rise, let's reflect on the historical context. Over the past few years, the real estate market has experienced fluctuations influenced by various economic and societal factors. The surge in mortgage loan applications at the beginning of 2024 suggests a renewed confidence in the real estate sector.

 

Dip in Mortgage Rates: One of the key driving forces behind the surge is the dip in mortgage rates. Financial institutions and sellers are offering attractive interest rates or seller paid buy downs motivating potential homebuyers to capitalize on favorable borrowing conditions. The allure of affordable financing is undoubtedly a catalyst for the increased demand in mortgage loans.

 

Pent-Up Demand from 2023: The year 2023 witnessed its share of challenges, with market dynamics affected by global events and economic shifts. Many prospective homebuyers may have deferred their plans in the face of uncertainties. The surge in mortgage loan applications could, in part, be attributed to the release of pent-up demand as individuals regain confidence in the stability of the real estate market.

 

Impact on the Real Estate Market: With a nearly double-digit percentage increase in mortgage loan applications, the real estate market is poised for heightened activity. Increased demand often translates to a competitive market, potentially leading to higher home prices. Sellers may find this an opportune time to list their properties, while buyers should be prepared for a dynamic and fast-paced market.

 

The 9.9% surge in mortgage loan applications during the first week of 2024 paints a positive picture for the real estate market. As economic conditions stabilize and confidence grows, both buyers and sellers can navigate this dynamic landscape with optimism. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or a seasoned real estate investor, staying informed about market trends is crucial in making informed decisions in the ever-evolving world of real estate.

Survey Says: Our Favorite Local King Cake

The beginning of the year marks a favorite season for many Louisianians -- king cake season. We set our healthy New Year's Resolutions only for them to break down weeks later with the sweet goodness that is king cake. With such a wide range of king cake flavors, from boudin flavored to berry or even alcohol filled, it is difficult to even find where to begin in searching for the best king cake in the Greater Baton Rouge Area. One thing we do guarantee, however, is that your mouth will be watering by the time you reach the end of this post. 

We surveyed some of our Realtors and staff to highlight some of our local king cake favorites in Baton Rouge, Denham Springs, Geismar, Gonzales, Plaquemine, Prairieville, and St. Amant. 


     Cathy Chifici
     

Tureau's Berry Deluxe Chantilly king cake. "Tureau's has so many different types. Most are only made to order so they are always fresh. Call two days in advance because their cake has to cool 24 hours before they will fill or ice it. My favorite is the Berry which is basically a Chantilly. It’s stuffed with Chantilly style cream cheese and loaded with fresh berries, whipped cream and powdered sugar. It is divine. My husband loves the Mississippi Mud king cake."



Tureau's Grocery Store is located at 44463 LA-431, St. Amant, LA. Call them at (225) 622-4094.


     Desireé Ellerbee
     

The Wedding king cake from Harvest Supermarket in Geismar is my favorite. I also enjoy the Dong Phuong king cake in either traditional or cream cheese that you can buy through Bao Asian Market & Deli.

 Harvest Supermarket is located in Geismar at 12513 LA-73. Bao Asian Market is located at 17316 Airline Hwy, Prairieville.


     Kodie Robertson
     

Thee Heavenly Donut. "I can’t eat them anymore, but when I could it was Thee Heavenly Donut. Much like a donut, they fry their king cakes. They even have a boudin king cake." 

 

     Dana Hedrick
     

Dana Hedrick seconded the tastiness of Thee Heavenly Donut

Thee Heavenly Donut has two locations in Baton Rouge -- 5830 S. Sherwood Forest Blvd and 17732 Highland Road, Suite C.


     Darbi McGlone
     

"My favorite is always Calandro's. I like that they have so many different flavors always available. I am basic so I always get cream cheese, but they have something for everyone including one with alcohol."

 

     Justin Dupuy
     

"Calandro's is generally the go-to option for my wife and I. She loves the strawberry cream cheese king cake and I enjoy sampling their other flavors. I also really enjoy the Tres Leches king cake from Ideal Market and the Praline Pecan king cake from Rouses."

Calandro's has Baton Rouge locations at 4142 Government Street and 12732 Perkins Road. Rouses has locations throughout the area including Baton Rouge, Denham Springs, Gonzales, Plaquemine, and Prairieville. Ideal Market is located at 9301 Burbank Drive and 1817 South Sherwood Forest Boulevard in Baton Rouge.
