📈 Should Buyers Be Scared That Mortgage Rates Are Rising?
Mortgage rates are no longer at ultra-low rates below 3% as they were this summer, but housing analysts are reminding house hunters that borrowing costs remain relatively cheap. Freddie Mac reported that the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 3.14% this week.
✅ Freddie Mac reports the following national averages with mortgage rates for the week ending Oct. 28:
• 30-year fixed-rate mortgages: averaged 3.14%, with an average 0.7 point, rising from last week’s 3.09% average. A year ago, 30-year rates averaged 2.81%.
• 15-year fixed-rate mortgages: averaged 2.37%, with an average 0.7 point, increasing from last week’s 2.33% average. A year ago, 15-year rates averaged 2.32%.
• 5-year hybrid adjustable-rate mortgages: averaged 2.56%, with an average 0.3 point, up from last week’s 2.54% average. Last year at this time, 5-year ARMs averaged 2.88%.
