Rising housing costs are deterring buyers across the country, according to a recent report by Redfin that said fewer people are buying homes this spring due to spiking prices and widespread economic instability.

According to Redfin, the median U.S. monthly housing payment is at an all-time high of $2,870, due to rising home prices and elevated mortgage rates.

“A lot of people who would normally be making moves right now are standing still,” said Redfin agent Bliss Ong. “They want to ride out this period of economic uncertainty and wait until they feel more secure to make this huge financial decision."
