Mortgage Rates at Lowest Level Ever Recorded MBA: 30 Year Mortgage Rates at 4.57%, 15 Year Mortgage Rates at 3.95%

Mortgage rates decreased to the lowest level ever recorded in the latest Mortgage Applications Survey. Both 30 year mortgage rates and 15 year mortgage rates made record lows. Although mortgage rates hit record lows mortgage loan application volume was flat according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.

Mortgage rates will hit news lows in next week's application survey since bond yields tumbled yesterday on the Feds comments about the economy slowing down. 30 year mortgage rates will probably go under 4.50 percent in next week's mortgage survey.

The Fed also announced they will continue to hold interest rates low for an extended period and start buying longer-term government debt with proceeds maturing from it's mortgage bond holdings.
