According to Zillow Group‘s mortgage analysis, rising mortgage rates in the wake of President-elect Donald Trump’s victory haven’t had an adverse impact on home purchases. Zillow says this could be due to homebuyers being insensitive to interest rate hikes in an exceptionally low-rate environment.

In fact, the real estate firm’s analysts expect housing prices to go up 3.6 percent in 2017 as interest rates rise.

Andy discusses how people in the market for a new home are looking to lock in low rates before they go up further.
