Freddie Mac today released the results of its Primary Mortgage Market Survey® (PMMS®) for the week ending May 26, 2022, showing that the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 5.10 percent.
“Mortgage rates decreased for the second week in a row due to multiple headwinds that the economy is facing,” said Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s Chief Economist. “Despite the recent moderation in rates, the housing market has clearly slowed, and the deceleration is spreading to other segments of the economy, such as consumer spending on durable goods.”
