Freddie Mac's weekly Primary Mortgage Market Survey released today shows that the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 3.11 percent.
“Mortgage rates continue to remain stable notwithstanding volatility in the financial markets,” said Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s Chief Economist. “The consistency of rates in the face of changes in the economy is primarily due to the evolution of the pandemic, which lingers and continues to pose uncertainty. This low mortgage rate environment offers favorable conditions for refinancing.”
