Mortgage Rates Rise to Over 7%. Ouch!

The average rate on the popular 30-year fixed mortgage crossed over 7% on Thursday, September 10th for the first time since May 2025. That is an increase of 10 basis points from Wednesday. (A basis point equals 0.01%.)

To illustrate this effect, for a buyer purchasing a $430,000 home (near the median price) after qualifying for a 30-year fixed loan with a 20% down payment, their monthly payment of principal and interest would be $244 higher today than it was at the end of February

The Latest on Down Payment Assistance:

While many would-be buyers still believe that a 20% down payment is mandatory, even more of them are unaware of their state's down payment assistance programs.

While every state has its own program, these five states have some of the best opportunities for financial assistance, including grants that don't require repayment.

Minnesota is home to the Start Up program, which offers a below-market first mortgage bundled with a choice of several down payment loans. The state also manages the $150 million First-Generation Homebuyers Community Down Payment Assistance Fund. For fast access to our states state's down payment assistance options...give me a call. I have been researching them all since I just listed 6 homes in First-Time Buyer price ranges under $359,900.
