Mortgage Rates
Thursday, July 23rd, 2009Mortgage rates overall have been mixed the past few weeks, while rates on the 30-year were flat-to-down slightly.
Freddie Mac released the results of their mortgage market survey today, and the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 5.20% for the week ending July 23, 2009, down from 5.42% in June. Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke, during his July 22 Senate testimony, noted mortgage rates are lower than they were last fall, and housing affordability right now is the highest it’s been in many years.
The all-time low of 4.78% was recorded the week of April 2. Freddie Mac’s survey dates back to 1971.
Last year at this time, the rate averaged 6.63%.
