Mortgage Rates Continue to Trend Down

October 22, 2020
Mortgage rates remain very low, providing homeowners who have not already taken advantage of this environment ample opportunity to do so. Mortgage rates today are on average more than a full percentage point lower than rates over the last five years. This means that most low- and moderate-income borrowers who purchased during the last few years stand to benefit by exploring refinancing to lower their monthly payment.

The year-long slide in mortgage rates seems to be ending as rates have flattened over the last month and the economic rebound has slowed. But with near record low rates, buyer demand remains robust with strong first-time buyers coming into the market. The demand is particularly strong in more affordable regions of the country such as the Midwest, where home prices are accelerating at the highest rates over the last two decades.
