Mortgage rates for 30-year fixed loans remained low this week, with the rate borrowers were quoted on Zillow Mortgages at 3.73 percent, unchanged from last week.
The 30-year fixed mortgage rate rose on Friday, then hovered around 3.76 percent before falling to Tuesday’s rate.
“Mortgage rates are almost unchanged from last week despite some volatility in response to mixed messages from incoming data and Fed commentary,” said Erin Lantz, vice president of mortgages at Zillow. “Despite a number of important speeches and data releases this week, expectations for the first Fed rate hike are firmly focused on December. We expect rates will remain roughly flat in the absence of exceptional global events.”
Additionally, the 15-year fixed mortgage rate was 2.92 percent. For 5/1 ARMs, the rate was 2.74 percent.
