3.56: Mortgage Rates Slowly Creep Up
Since the beginning of the year, mortgage rates have been slowly, but steadily, moving up.
Freddie Mac reported 3.56 percent with an average 0.8 point as the average on a 30-year fixed mortgage this morning. Long-term rates haven’t been this high since last August.
Here is a quick look at how rates have risen over the last two months:
- December 13th — 3.32%
- January 3rd — 3.34%
- January 10th — 3.40%
- January 24th — 3.42%
- February 7th — 3.53%
- February 21st — 3.56%
