According to the NAR (National Association of Realtors) It’s the 4th straight week that the 30-year home loan stayed below 3.30%; the average rate on the 15-year fixed-rate mortgage slipped to 2.70%.  Long-term U.S. mortgage rates eased this week in a housing market battered by the shutdown spurred by the coronavirus pandemic.
