Financing and Interest Rates

Reading the Trend
A sideways market: neither side has a clear upper hand. Time on market lengthens and negotiation matters more than timing.
What to watch next month
- The next quarterly release of the house price index for Indonesia (Q2 2026 is the latest) — whether annual growth holds near +0.7%.
- Upcoming decisions by Bank Indonesia — any move from 5.75% feeds through to mortgage pricing within weeks.
What This Means for Buyers, Sellers and Investors
Time is on your side — offers below asking are normal in a flat market, especially on stock listed for more than 90 days.
The first two weeks on the market matter most — price to the last comparable sale, not the highest asking price in the street.
Rising financing costs narrow the gap between yield and mortgage rate; model returns at today's rate plus one point.
