30-årige realkreditrenter falder for tredje uge
The average interest rate on a 30-year mortgage fell to 6.62% from 6.64% last week, while the rate on 15-year mortgages remained at 5.82%, according to Freddie Mac.
WASHINGTON – The average interest rate on a 30-year mortgage in the United States fell for the third week in a row, another positive move for potential homebuyers during the traditionally busy housing market season.
Renten faldt til 6.62% fra 6.64% i sidste uge, sagde realkreditmægler Freddie Mac torsdag. For et år siden var satsen i gennemsnit 6.88%.
Den gennemsnitlige rate er for det meste faldet, siden den nåede lidt over 7 % i midten af januar. Når realkreditrenterne falder, øger de boligkøbernes købekraft.
The cost of borrowing for 15-year fixed-rate mortgages, popular with homeowners refinancing their mortgages, was unchanged from last week. The average rate remained at 5.82 percent but was down from 6.16 percent a year ago, according to Freddie Mac.
Mortgage rates are affected by several factors, including global demand for U.S. Treasuries, the Federal Reserve’s interest rate policy decisions, and bond market investor expectations of future inflation.
