Mortgage Rates Head Lower Today on Weak Jobs Report

Mortgage rates are lower today and look to be headed even lower in the coming week thanks to a weak jobs report released this past Friday. Fixed conforming mortgage rates and fixed jumbo mortgage rates today are all lower. Only 88,000 private payroll jobs were created last month while the government payroll shrank once again in June losing 4,000 jobs. Economists were expecting a net gain of 100,000 jobs in June.

Smaller government has kept the unemployment rate higher and has kept the monthly job gains number lower in the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Employment Situation Summary reports. For the past several months the ADP monthly job gain number has been considerably higher than the government's number since the ADP number only contains private payroll jobs. ADP's recent report showed job gains of 176,000 last month.

Current mortgage rates on 30 year conventional loans are averaging 3.62 percent, down from an average 30 year mortgage rate of 3.66 percent. Currently on our rate tables in Austin, Texas, there are several lenders offering 30 year mortgage rates below the average rate.
