We are waiting for the contract addendum with final pricing. It may still make financial sense to go through with everything, once we have all that. It’s just annoying that in this situation, our house costs are fixed against a particular point in time, but interest rates continue to rise.

Can you put some money into instruments to hedge against rising interest rates? Something like TBT comes to mind (it's a fund that's short treasuries basically, so increases in value when interest rates rise) or buying puts against long bond funds.
