Mortgage rates forecast

Mortgage rates fell back toward their all-time low this week, increasing purchasing power for homebuyers. But the lack of homes for sale drives up prices and reduces affordability, according to Freddie Mac.

Mortgage rates experienced a marginal uptick this week, rising three basis points. But they remained near record lows and possibly soon could track down again, according to Freddie Mac.

Mortgage rates remained relatively flat, rising a single basis point off of last week's record low, according to Freddie Mac.

Low rates, along with increased new and existing home sales activity drives the latest forecast.

But the 30-year fixed remains below 3%, which should continue to support increased demand.

Rates are forecasted to remain at the current low levels for the rest of 2020, driving steady refinance volume.

Mortgage rates fell 2 basis points this week, remaining near their historic lows as they have for the past month with the markets roiled by uncertainty, according to Freddie Mac.

Mortgage rates rose for the first time in six weeks, going back the above the 3% mark, as spreads to the 10-year Treasury yield widened again, according to Freddie Mac.

Mortgage rates continued their slide, with the conforming 30-year fixed at its closest point ever to breaching the 3% mark, according to Freddie Mac.

Mortgage rates reached their lowest level this week since Freddie Mac began its Primary Mortgage Market Survey in 1971, but they might not have yet gotten to their floor.
