Mortgage Rates End the Week with Record Lows

October 8 2010 (Shirley Allen)

Mortgage rate lows Freddie Mac today released the results of its Primary Mortgage Market Survey® (PMMS®), which found that the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rate dropped yet again to break the survey’s all-time low; the 15-year fixed-rate did the same. The 5-year ARM also set an all-time survey low.

30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 4.27 percent with an average 0.8 point for the week ending October 7, 2010, down from last week when it averaged 4.32 percent. Last year at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 4.87 percent.
15-year FRM this week averaged a record low of 3.72 percent with an average 0.7 point, down from last week when it averaged 3.75 percent. A year ago at this time, the 15-year FRM averaged 4.33 percent.
5-year Treasury-indexed hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) averaged 3.47 percent this week, with an average 0.6 point, down from last week when it averaged 3.52 percent. A year ago, the 5-year ARM averaged 4.35 percent.
1-year Treasury-indexed ARM averaged 3.40 percent this week with an average 0.7 point, down from last week when it averaged 3.48 percent. At this time last year, the 1-year ARM averaged 4.53 percent.

Frank Nothaft, vice president and chief economist of Freddie Mac stated, “The 12-month growth rate in the core price index for personal consumption, which the Federal Reserve closely tracks, has been drifting lower over the past six months ending in August and suggests inflation is running at a tepid pace at best. This allowed mortgage rates to ease to new or near record lows this week.”

And…

“Housing affordability increased for the second month in a row in August to tie April’s level, according to the National Association of Realtors® (NAR). As a result, pending existing home sales also rose for the second consecutive month in August to the strongest pace in four months, the NAR also reported. Furthermore, since the end of August, mortgage applications for home purchases were up over 14 percent for the week ended October 1st.”
