Share to :
2016-01-13
According to Freddie Mac's latest Primary Mortgage Market Survey (PMMS), U.S. mortgage rates mixed with the 30-year fixed-rate falling back below four percent to start the year.
 
Sean Becketti, chief economist at Freddie Mac said, "Concerns about overseas economic developments have dominated financial markets to start the year. U.S. Treasury bond yields fell amidst a global equity selloff and flight to safety. In response, the 30-year mortgage rate dipped 4 basis points to 3.97 percent."
