Mortgage Rates Decline This Week – Average 30 Year Rates at 4.14 Percent

Average fixed mortgage rates are lower this week, following bond yields lower. 30 year mortgage rates fell from 4.22 percent last week to 4.14 percent this week. During the past week 10 year bond yields have fallen from 2.62 percent down to yesterday's close of 2.52 percent. This coming week we might see 10 year bond yields fall below 2.50 percent and 30 year rates fall below 4.10 percent.

Mortgage rates were forecasted to move higher in 2014 but the opposite has happened so far. The Mortgage Bankers Association predicts 30 year rates will head towards 5.00 percent by the end of the year. Since we are almost in the third quarter of 2014 and 30 year rates are closer to 4.00 percent, it's doubtful that the MBA's forecast is correct.

By the end of this year, 30 year rates will still be under 4.50 percent unless the economy really takes off and inflation increases above 2.00 percent. You can still find lenders quoting 30 year mortgage rates today below 4.00 percent. Checking on the rate tables, we see the lowest 30 year refinance rates are at 3.625 percent with 2 mortgage points and at 3.875 percent with no points.
