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%
