INTEREST RATES INCHING HIGHER FOR LOUDOUN COUNTY, VA MORTAGES
It has been a wild ride in the mortgage market for the past two weeks. Last week, rates ( mortgage prices ) were under pressure leading up to Friday’s employment figures.
The market was surprised by a notably higher jobs created figure as well as a lower than expected unemployment rate. This pushed interest rates higher late last week. The market licked its wounds earlier this week and things have stabilized a bit.
Although stock prices are at historic highs, we have not seen notable gains this week. It will be interesting to see how the dust settles. For now, rates remain historically very low in the 3.625% to 3.75% with little or no discount fees for most borrowers.
As the uncertainty and political rhetoric continue to escalate, look for stock prices and mortgage prices to be volatile for the foreseeable future. We are watching this closely and providing expert advise to clients as best we can as they go through the buying process and look for the best possible rate.
Please feel free to contact me should you or your clients have any questions.
