INTEREST RATES IMPROVE AGAIN / 30 YEAR FIXED AT 3.625%
April 30th, 2012
The MBS Market closed last week trading up (+16 bps).
Mortgage rates continue to improve as more and more investors are concerned regarding the slumping economy and the still unresolved Europe debt crisis.
30 year fixed rates are now down to 3.625% and the 30 year fixed High balance loans are down to 3.875%. This is a great time to lock. These are the lowest interest rates I have seen in a couple of months.
The Fed Meeting last week didn’t cause as much drama as some anticipated. Ben Bernanke’s statement said that the FED is still committed to keeping interest rates low through the end of 2014, and will not be doing another round of mortgage backed security purchases at this time. They kept this open ended, saying the FED will act if it was needed to help the economy.
