  • Mortgage application activity is picking up — a quiet sign buyers are getting serious.
  • Improving spreads can help rates behave more steadily.
  • This is a “get ready” window — not a pressure moment.

Every market has a quiet season — then the signals start stacking up. Lately, those signals are showing up across North Dallas.
