Are mortgage rates going up? Are mortgage rates going down? I am a regular participant in the Bankrate.com Mortgage Rate Trend survey and this week's survey may point you in the right direction.
Mortgage rate volatility is back in a big way, folks. To put the pace of change in perspective, consider this: * In the last 60 days, lenders have issued 4 or more rates sheets in a day once per week * In the last 365 days, lenders have issued 4 or more rates sheets in a day once per month. The last 2 months have been a mortgage rate whirlwind.
Mortgage rates are notoriously volatile when the Federal Open Market Committee meets and today is such a day. Given the current environment of low mortgage rates -- whether you live in Hyde Park, Cincinnati or Hyde Park, Chicago -- there's definitely more chance of mortgage rates rising this afternoon than falling. There's only so much lower rates can go.
