| Mortgage Rates Drift Slightly Higher to Start The Week | ||
| 6/16/2025 2:53 PM | ||
| While there"s been no shortage of political and geopolitical headlines over the past 2 business days, there hasn"t been much by way of inspiration for the bond market. Bonds (and, thus, rates) have moved nonetheless. Perhaps it was the lower rates achieved last Thursday that prompted a pullback, or perhaps traders are pricing in some c...Read More | ||
| Mortgage Rates Bounce But Remain Lower on The Week | ||
| 6/13/2025 2:11 PM | ||
| The top tier 30yr fixed mortgage rate index rose 0.04% on Friday, which would be a medium-sized defeat in and of itself. In the broader context, however, it was an acceptable adjustment on what has otherwise been a solid week. Specifically, today"s rates are still 0.08% lower than last Friday"s. There were no standout individual sources of i...Read More | ||
| Lowest Mortgage Rates in More Than a Month | ||
| 6/12/2025 2:50 PM | ||
| Mortgage rates being offered today are only a hair lower for the average lender than they were on June 4th, but June 4th was the best day since early May. In other words, today"s average rate is the lowest in just over a month. This didn"t happen by chance. The underlying bond market has been responding to economic data over the past two day...Read More | ||
| Mortgage Rates Fall as Inflation Data Comes in Soft | ||
| 6/11/2025 2:48 PM | ||
| After a calm start to the week on Monday and Tuesday, we were likely to see a bit more volatility on Wednesday due to important events on the calendar. The first was the morning"s release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI), a key inflation report. Inflation is one of the most basic inputs for the bond market. Bonds, in turn, dictate interest rate m...Read More | ||
| Mortgage Rates Inch Slightly Lower | ||
| 6/10/2025 2:37 PM | ||
| It was a fairly boring day on what has turned out to be a fairly boring week so far for mortgage rates. After Friday"s larger spike, we"ve seen a microscopic recovery on each of the past 2 days. In terms of specific index levels, this equates to a 0.04% drop in the top tier 30yr fixed rate for the average lender. This is roughly one th...Read More | ||
| Mortgage Rates a Hair Lower to Start The Week | ||
| 6/9/2025 2:38 PM | ||
| As hoped, Friday"s big rate spike did not carry additional momentum into the new week. This is occasionally a risk when rates are responding to big surprise in the jobs report, but slightly less of a risk when the other economic data had been weaker. All that having been said, it"s not as if we"re seeing a triumphant return to last wee...Read More | ||
| Mortgage Rates Jump Back Toward 7% After Jobs Report | ||
| 6/6/2025 2:13 PM | ||
| Mortgage rates have enjoyed a nice run since May 21st, with the MND Index (average top tier 30yr fixed scenarios) falling from a recent peak of 7.08% to this week"s low of 6.87%. As recently as yesterday afternoon, rates were still much closer to those lows at 6.89%. One day can make a big difference and today turned out to be that day. We k...Read More | ||
| Mortgage Rates Little Changed, But Friday Could See a Bigger Move | ||
| 6/5/2025 2:37 PM | ||
| Mortgage rates began the day perfectly in line with yesterday"s latest levels for the average lender. By the afternoon, the underlying bond market had lost enough ground that a handful of lenders were forced to issue mid-day reprices thus taking the average just a bit higher. Unlike the past few days, there wasn"t a highly important economic repor...Read More | ||
| Biggest Daily Drop For Mortgage Rates in Over a Month | ||
| 6/4/2025 3:32 PM | ||
| Whether or not today"s drop in rates is meaningful depends on one"s perspective, but in the context of recent rate movement, it"s definitely noticeable. The simplest way to think about the improvement is as follows: the average lender is now about an eighth of a percent lower in just over a week. If we want to be more specific, today"s avera...Read More | ||
| Uneventful Day For Mortgage Rates | ||
| 6/3/2025 3:02 PM | ||
| Sometimes a Tuesday is just a Tuesday for mortgage rates. In the present week, any day is capable of generating some volatility due to one of several economic reports on the calendar. This isn"t always the case, but the first week of any given month is action-packed when it comes to data. Econ data is one of the top reasons that intere...Read More | ||
