Mortgage Rates Improve Following Employment Data And FOMC

Comments (1)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on May 01 2013, 4:02 PM

Mortgage rates kept falling today, further extending the run into the lowest rates of 2013, but not quite in all-time low territory yet. Much of today's improvement was a factor of the morning's employment data from ADP--seen as forward indicator of Friday...
Mortgage Rates Continue Tip-Toeing Into 2013 Lows

Comments (0)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 30 2013, 2:36 PM

Mortgage rates extended their run into 2013 lows today, but only by small margins. The movement is essentially similar to yesterday's and further supports the case for a shift from 3.5% to 3.375% for the Conventional, 30yr Fixed best execution rate. The...
Mortgage Rates Modestly Improve on 2013 Lows

Comments (1)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 29 2013, 3:26 PM

Mortgage rates continued lower today, after officially hitting the lowest levels of the year on Friday. Bond markets including MBS (the "mortgage-backed-securities" that most directly affect mortgage rates) generally held steady despite advancing stock...
Mortgage Rates Officially Hit New 2013 Lows

Comments (0)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 26 2013, 2:02 PM

Mortgage rates finally made a break from their recent flat and sideways pattern, moving officially to the best levels of 2013 by a small margin (this may vary slightly depending on the lender). The day-over-day improvement isn't out of line with average...
Mortgage Rates Almost Perfectly Flat For Eight Consecutive Days

Comments (1)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 25 2013, 3:18 PM

Mortgage rates were microscopically higher today, doing very little to change the pervasive theme of narrow, sideways movement this week. In fact, today's rates are almost perfectly comparable to those seen on 4/15 and have moved less during those 8 business...
Mortgage Rates Continue Hovering Around Recent Lows, Slightly Higher Today

Comments (1)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 24 2013, 2:21 PM

Mortgage rates continued their recent pattern of limited movement, rising almost imperceptibly today. This keeps them in line with recent lows, which they've held uneventfully since the beginning of last week. Although today isn't quite the best of the...
Mortgage Rates Improve Only Slightly, But Near 2013 Lows

Comments (0)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 23 2013, 2:27 PM

Mortgage rates barely moved today, but the modest improvements were enough to bring them as close as they've been to 2013 lows in more than three months. Bond markets including MBS (the mortgage-backed-securities that most directly affect mortgage rates...
Mortgage Rates Steady Near 3 Month Lows

Comments (1)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 22 2013, 2:51 PM

Mortgage rates were essentially flat to begin the week, with most lenders inconsequentially higher or lower than Friday's levels. That puts today's rates in the same league with last week's best offerings as well as those seen after the Employment Situation...
Mortgage Rates End Week At Best Levels

Comments (0)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 19 2013, 1:24 PM

Mortgage rates were very slightly lower today, but the improvement was just enough to leave most lenders at their best rates of the week. We have yet to see a move below the prevailing b est execution ( what is this? ) rate of 3.5% for 30yr Fixed loans...
Mortgage Rates Vary By Lender, But Unchanged On Average

Comments (1)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 18 2013, 2:56 PM

Mortgage rates were unchanged today, with some lenders raising costs just slightly while others were markedly improved. Taken together, there was no change in the average borrowing cost associated with the current 3.5% b est execution ( what is this?...
Mortgage Rates Show Resolve To Remain In Recently Lower Range

Comments (1)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 17 2013, 3:13 PM

Mortgage rates edged modestly lower today, signifying some level of resolve to remain at the more aggressive levels of the recently lower range in April. There were no significant scheduled economic reports today--a fact that can make for increased volatility...
Mortgage Rates Snap Recent Winning Streak

Comments (1)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 16 2013, 1:46 PM

Mortgage rates moved higher today, breaking a three day trend of improvements that had rates approaching their 2013 lows. The will to push back against that recent move lower was evident in the trading levels of MBS--the mortgage-backed-securities that...
Mortgage Rates Improve Slightly, Near 2013 Lows

Comments (1)

Read More

by Matthew Graham on April 15 2013, 2:08 PM

Mortgage rates moved lower for the 3rd straight day, moderately extending the solid improvements seen late last week, and bringing rates very close to 2013 lows. Depending on the rate, some lenders are actually slightly lower in cost than they were on...
Mortgage Rates Back Near Lows Of The Week

Comments (1)

by Matthew Graham on April 12 2013, 2:23 PM
