US 30-Year Fixed Mortgage Rate Falls to 7.18% for Third Consecutive Week
Current overview (not historical)
Freddie Mac released data on November 5 local time showing that the average rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage in the United States fell to 7.18%. This marks a third consecutive weekly decline, compared with 7.24% one week earlier and 6.22% one year ago. The 10-year Treasury yield fell to 4.84%, and analysts said this was the main reason behind the decline in mortgage rates. Rates nonetheless remain at a high level, and the slump in the housing market may continue.
