Why Santa Monica Is Heating Up Again: Lower Mortgage Rates and a New Luxury Gym

Why Santa Monica Is Heating Up Again: Lower Mortgage Rates and a New Luxury Gym

  • Hannah Laird
  • 10/21/25

Mortgage Rates (Freddie Mac):

  • The average 30-year fixed rate decreased this week to 6.27% vs 6.3% last week
  • Mortgage rates inched down and have remained relatively stable in recent weeks
  • The Federal Reserve’s next meeting is scheduled for October 28-29, with markets expecting a 25 bps interest rate cut
  • While Fed rate changes don’t directly determine mortgage rates, a cut would likely support the recent downward trend in borrowing costs!

🏠 Fitness and View Fanatics:

  • Fitness and pool lovers will be pleased to know that a new Equinox is set to open in Santa Monica
  • I've been told the official opening is the second week of December!
  • The club features a rooftop pool with ocean views, saunas, cold plunges and an overall luxury experience
  • If you're interested - check out the info here >> Equinox Santa Monica East.
