Secondly, I'm about to close in two weeks on a house, and waiting to lock in the rate. Why do I have a sinking feeling that I'm going to be pounded in the ass by a fed hike this week, and imminent housing crash in the next year. Is there any reality where interest rates go down, and the house market keeps steady, or do I pull out last second, keep renting and interest rates keep going up, housing prices keep going up, and bury my home ownership plans further into the abyss. Feels like I'm in a no win situation.
