The Mortgage Reports:
 
Mortgage Rates Drop to Lowest Levels Since December 17th
2/14/2025 2:20 PM
The final two days of the present week weren"t on many bingo cards as of Wednesday afternoon.  At the time, rates were jumping higher in response to inflation data.  That same morning, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) showed consumer inflation accelerating much faster than expected last month.  As we discussed yesterday, the Producer ...Read More
 
Mortgage Rates Completely Reverse Yesterday"s Spike
2/13/2025 2:21 PM
Mortgage rates jumped quickly higher yesterday following the higher inflation reading in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Now today, rates have completely erased the move despite a similar report, the Producer Price Index (PPI) seemingly adding fuel to the inflationary fire. PPI is almost never as big of a deal as CPI when it comes to pushing rates...Read More
 
Mortgage Rates Highest in Nearly a Month After Inflation Report
2/12/2025 2:36 PM
Today"s mortgage rate movement is very straightforward.  Unfortunately, it"s also marked by a straight line toward higher levels--in this case, the highest since January 14th. Incidentally, January 14th was the day before the last instance of the Consumer Price Index (CPI), the same inflation report that caused rates to surge higher today.&nb...Read More
 
Mortgage Rates Tick Slightly Higher. More Volatility in Store Tomorrow
2/11/2025 2:14 PM
Any recap of financial news headlines will likely mention Fed Chair Powell"s congressional testimony today.  Some efforts could even be made to link today"s rate movement to various Powell comments, but that"s not what actually happened. The real story is that bonds (which dictate mortgage rates) lost ground moderately and steadily overnight,...Read More
 
Mortgage Rates Microscopically Lower to Start New Week
2/10/2025 2:24 PM
Mortgage rates have been on a vacation from volatility since January 16th when they fell back toward 7% after hitting the highest levels since May 2024. Top tier 30yr fixed rates have operated inside a 0.13% range since then and a narrower 0.08% range for the past 2 weeks.  Today was technically a win, but it was fairly small (-0.02%). Any ti...Read More
 
Mortgage Rates End Week Lower Despite Friday"s Modest Bounce
2/7/2025 11:55 AM
Friday brought the release of the big jobs report which is historically more likely than any other monthly economic report to cause the biggest pops or drops. Today"s installment can be filed under the "pop" category, but it was so quiet, you might not even hear it. In fact, the drop in rates seen earlier in the week ended up being slightly bigger...Read More
 
Mortgage Rates Mostly Maintain Wednesday"s Strength
2/6/2025 2:20 PM
Yesterday was notable for being the first day in more than a week to offer any excitement for rates.  More notably, that excitement was the good kind.  The average lender moved back under 7.00% for top tier conventional 30yr fixed rates for the first time since December 17th, even if only by a scant 0.01%.   Today"s rates are e...Read More
 
Mortgage Rates Finally Make a Move (Lower)
2/5/2025 1:55 PM
The recent absence of volatility in day-to-day mortgage rate movement has been an easy target for light-hearted indignation among market watchers.  But to be fair, if rates had been moving swiftly higher/lower/both, most market watchers would wish for some sideways stability.  In fact, for most prospective borrowers as well as mortgage p...Read More
 
Mortgage Rates Score Another Victory Against Excitement
2/4/2025 3:26 PM
If you like your mortgage rate movement boring and minimal, this week"s for you (and last week, and the week before that).  Going all the way back to January 17th, the average lender hasn"t changed their top tier 30yr fixed rate quote by more than 0.05%, and has been operating in an overall range of 0.07%. To get an idea of how narrow that is...Read More
 
Mortgage Rates Stay Flat Despite Underlying Market Volatility
2/3/2025 3:10 PM
We know that mortgage rates are driven by financial markets and we know that financial markets have experienced volatility amid the roll-out of new tariffs over the weekend. But rates are starting the current week right in line with Friday"s latest levels (themselves, little-changed from any other day last week).  Part of the paradox is down ...Read More
