Mortgage Rates are Even Lower This Week

Mortgage rates are lower again this week, continuing the downtrend into 2016. Thankfully, mortgage rates are not climbing as a result of the Fed raising the fed funds rate. Average 30 year conforming rates fell to a new low for 2016, averaging 3.73 percent. 30 year rates are down from last week's average of 3.80 percent.

During the past week, we have seen lenders listed in the database offer 30 year conforming refinance rates as low as 3.375 percent with points. The lowest 30 year rates without points offered was also below the average at 3.625 percent. Lenders are currently offering those lowest rates today.
