Mortgage Rates Start to Rise in U.S.

Freddie Mac | April 12, 2019

According to Freddie Mac's latest Primary Mortgage Market Survey, U.S. mortgage rates rose modestly this 2nd week of April 2019, with the 30-year fixed-rate averaging 4.12 percent.
Sam Khater, Freddie Mac's chief economist, says, "Rates moved up slightly this week while mortgage applications decreased following last week's jump in rates - indicating borrower sensitivity to changing mortgage rates. Despite the recent rise, we expect mortgage rates to remain low, in line with the low 10-year treasury yields, boosting homebuyer demand in the next few months."
