As the Federal Reserve's FOMC (Federal Open Market Committee) meeting approaches on Thursday, investors anticipate a potential interest rate cut. This could have significant implications for the home remodeling sector, which is expected to rise to $477 billion by 2025, according to Harvard University's Joint Center for Housing Studies. Angi co-founder Angie Hicks joins to discuss how a rate cut could boost the home remodeling space. Hicks notes that houses are the largest investment for most Americans, so "we need to make sure it fits our lifestyle." She explains that if rates were to come down, this would allow homeowners to tap into their home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) to invest in remodeling their homes to better suit their needs and preferences. Hicks offers several tips for those considering a home remodeling project: "identify your budget" and understand how much you're comfortable spending, create a timeline to maximize the value of your investment, and make sure to hire trusted professionals to get the job done.

"What we're seeing that's unusual in a 21% up equity year is we're seeing volatility quite high, and we're seeing a lot of uncertainty around fixed income. And part of this is because... the fiscal priming that's been done through this post-COVID cycle has really set the economy up with a much stronger base," Easterly EAB Risk Solutions global macro strategist Arnim Holzer tells Yahoo Finance. "Now a longer-term issue around indebtedness, but a stronger economic base that leads to uncertainty in what the Fed can do."
