For a more in depth mortgage survey read MBR’s most recent Mortgage Rate Survey released earlier this week:
Mortgage rates were up again in our most recent Mortgage Rate Survey. Conforming 30 year fixed mortgage rates were slightly higher but managed to stay under 5.00 percent for the fourth consecutive week. Market analysts were concerned mortgage rates would run up in late March since the Fed is winding down their purchase of mortgage-backed securities.
The Fed’s $1.25 trillion dollar program was started a year ago to provide support to the housing market by driving down mortgage rates. The Fed successfully drove 30 year mortgage rates below 5.00 percent. Now that their support is ending, there is concern mortgage rates will go higher.
