For the week ending June 1, 30-year rates rose to 6.79% from 6.57% the week before. In addition, 15-year loans increased to 6.18%. A year ago, 30-year fixed rates averaged 5.09%, more than 1.5% lower than today. Attributed to Sam Khater, Chief Economist, Freddie Mac, “Mortgage rates jumped this week, as a buoyant economy has prompted the market to price-in the likelihood of another Federal Reserve rate hike. Although there has been a steady flow of purchase demand around rates in the low to mid six percent range, that demand is likely to weaken as rates approach seven percent” Note: Rates indicated do not include fees and points and are provided for evidence of trends only.
