Ilyce Glink: US mortgage rates highest levels since January 2025

Ilyce Glink, of ThinkGlink.com and the Love, Money + Real Estate newsletter, joins Wendy Snyder, filling in for Lisa Dent, to explain why higher energy prices, soaring diesel costs and rising mortgage rates are squeezing household budgets. They discuss how families may be spending roughly $900 more on energy, why those diesel costs ripple into food and shipping prices, and how public spending and debt can ultimately affect taxpayers, all while homebuyers face mortgage rates near their highest levels since early 2025. https://serve.castfire.com/audio/8669341/Ilyce_Glink_9-18-26_2026-09-18-203541.64kmono.mp3 More with Ilyce Glink Recent posts Wendy Snyder Wendy Snyder on Sunday Morning | September 20 .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} September is National Suicide Prevention Month .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} Dan Hampton previews Week 2 of the Bears season .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} Newsroom Sound Check: 09/18/26 .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} Birrieria Ocotlan, one of America’s best .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} Click for more Recent Posts Lisa Dent Dan Hampton previews Week 2 of the Bears season .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} Newsroom Sound Check: 09/18/26 .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} Alcohol limits before boarding your next flight? .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} Dr. Dana Varble: Treats or patience for potty training? .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} Ilyce Glink: US mortgage rates highest levels since 1/25 .cls-7{fill:#fff;fill-rule:evenodd} Click for more
