I am a regular participant in the Bankrate.com Mortgage Rate Trend survey and this week's survey is now available.
As a reminder:
Anyway, on to the group's predictions for the next 30 days:
I am predicting that rates will remain unchanged over the next 30 days, but that doesn't mean you should necessarily follow my advice when choosing whether to lock a rate, or float it. My advice may not be appropriate for your individual situation.
From the Bankrate.com survey:
"On-again, off-again inflation concerns may knock the market around a bit, but it will still settle in unchanged over the next month."
In other words, you better have nerves of steel if you're planning to float in the current mortgage rate environment. Even the gamblers have topped their risk tolerance.
I've been using Twitter to communicate the market shifts to clients. My tweets tell them when rates are likely to change so they can be more pro-active about their finances.
Twitter's simple to set up and it's non-intrusive. You're welcome to follow me if you'd like the updates, too.
