WEEKLY RATE – RATES TRENDING HIGHER
I hope everyone is having a fantastic week!!
In this weekly rate, we discuss:
– This week in interest rate pricing
– Higher Conventional, VA, and FHA Loan Limits for 2018
WEEKLY INTEREST RATE PRICING:
Interest rates have trended higher at the end of December and early January.
Rate pricing is near 6 month highs, but the good news is that rates are still within a .25% of the best rates of the past 6 months.
The Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market started this week down – 44 bps, but since has recovered some going into Friday, trading down -12 bps.
Mortgage Backed Securities and US Treasuries have a strong correlation to mortgage rate pricing. As bonds go down, rate pricing worsens.
The expected trend is for mortgage rate pricing to continue to slowly trend higher in 2018.

Have a great week!!
