Mortgage rates take a turn...for the better!

Although there has been much speculation that rates will rise (and I believe they will) we are currently seeing a drop in which the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 4.93 percent, down from last week when it averaged 5.00 percent. Last year at this time, the 30-year fixed rate mortgage averaged 4.86 percent so we are close to last year's numbers.

"Interest rates on fixed-rate mortgage declined for the 5th straight week," said Frank Nothaft, Freddie Mac vice president and chief economist. "The National Association of Realtors® reported that median house prices are recovering in more local areas in the latest quarter.."

I appears that we have a great opportunity going into the busy season for home sales.
