Fixed Mortgage Rates: Home Mortgage Rates Rise

According to Freddie Mac, 30-year fixed-rate mortgages rose to 4.35%, while 15-year fixed-rate mortgages remained at 3.83% record lows.

According to Freddie Mac, the average interest rate on a 30-year fixed-rate home mortgage rose last week, while the average rate on a 15-year fixed-rate mortgage remained unchanged.

In its weekly survey of conforming mortgage rates (released Thursday, September 9th), Freddie Mac noted that the average rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rose to 4.35%, up slightly from the prior week’s 4.32% average. This is the first time since the week ended June 17 that the mortgage rate rose.

The 15-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 3.83%, remaining at its record low that was set the prior week.

We're going to continue to see this VMS (violent mood swings) with mortgage rates. There's little economic acitivty to push them higher and the secondary market is reluctant to buy them when they get this low.

CALHFA just re-instituted their FHA program at 4% for a 30 year fixed (3.875%) if you use the CHDAP second (3.25%) for down payment or closing costs.

Hi Greg. Once the economy picks up, then I suspect we’ll see rates continue to rise.

The CalHFA program is a great opportunity for first-time homebuyers.
