Debt Ceiling: Housing Market Impacts Revealed

Today #RealtyBITES video, takes a closer look at how the pending debt ceiling impacts the housing market and you as a homeowner or simply if you are looking to be a first-time buyer.

Reaching the debt ceiling limit could have a wide effect across the US economy due to the instability created by paused government spending and as well as the risk to interest rates.

If an agreement is not reached to suspend or increase the debt ceiling soon, the Treasury will run out of its available exhaustive measures and the economy could be in trouble.
