(中央社記者張欣瑜舊金山4日專電)美國長天期公債殖利率維持高檔,30年期固定房貸平均利率升至6.71%。高利率加重購屋者每月還款壓力,也提高住宅開發商的融資成本;在AI產業帶動部分高價住宅需求、住房供給偏緊的舊金山灣區,買房與租屋族恐面臨更沉重的住房負擔。

美國聯邦住宅貸款抵押公司(Freddie Mac,簡稱房地美)公布,截至9月3日當週,美國30年期固定房貸平均利率升至6.71%,創2025年7月以來新高。

以貸款本金100萬美元(約新台幣3160萬元)、30年期固定利率房貸計算,利率為3.5%時,每月本息約4490美元;利率升至6.7%後,增至約6450美元,相差約1960美元。

聖克拉拉大學(Santa Clara University)財務金融系主任兼副教授金瑞英(Seoyoung Kim)接受中央社訪問時指出,「對一般美國家庭來說,每月多出近2000美元是一筆非常大的負擔」,且這尚未納入房屋稅、住宅保險、房屋維修及其他持有房屋成本。

這項壓力在舊金山灣區更加明顯。當地房價原本就遠高於全美平均,近期人工智慧(AI)產業快速發展帶來的高薪與股權財富,又進一步支撐部分地區的購屋需求,使高房價與高房貸利率同時擠壓一般購屋者。

美聯社近日報導指出,許多AI公司高收入員工正購入灣區數百萬美元住宅,且對高房貸利率與高房價較不敏感;舊金山都會區今年上半年豪宅成交量年增39.3%,中價位住宅成交量則年增15.1%。

「高利率不僅提高購屋者的房貸負擔,也推升公寓開發商的融資成本。」金瑞英表示,由於開發商同樣依賴借款,增加的成本最終可能反映在租金上,租屋者也會受到影響。

租金追蹤網站Zumper數據顯示,舊金山8月的房租持續刷新紀錄,較7月上漲了2.9%,一房住宅租金中位數升至每月4300美元,比去年同期上漲了近26%。

相較之下,洛杉磯一房住宅租金中位數比去年同期下降4%。兩地租金差距擴大。

史東(Stone)原本住在舊金山市中心。他告訴中央社,原先承租的一房公寓月租為3500美元,近期調漲至近4500美元,因此決定搬到東灣胡桃溪(Walnut Creek)。

金瑞英指出,與紐約等大眾運輸較完善的城市相比,舊金山灣區部分民眾為了降低住房成本搬到較遠地區後,通常更依賴汽車,除了房租或房貸,還要承擔車貸與較高的通勤成本。這使舊金山灣區一般民眾對高利率與高住房成本的感受更加強烈。

對於長天期美債殖利率未來走勢,金瑞英表示,市場沒有可以精準預測的「水晶球」。不過,以目前情況來看,她不認為未來6個月內會大幅下降,也不排除進一步升高的可能。

Rice prices in Japanese supermarkets fall for three consecutive years, with new rice cheaper than old rice

Statistics from the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan show that the average price of 5 kilograms of white rice including tax in supermarkets across the country has fallen to 3,112 yen for three consecutive weeks. The decline in wholesale prices has led to the phenomenon that new rice is cheaper than old rice in some channels. The chance of a sharp reversal in rice prices in the short term is low.
