3.62: Rates Keep Moving Up

After many weeks of dropping, long-term mortgage rates rose for the third week in a row.
This morning, Freddie Mac reported 3.62 percent with an average 0.6 point as the average on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage.

The UrbanTurf Mortgage Rate Disclaimer: The rates reported by Freddie Mac for 30-year mortgages are usually the best rates that the most qualified borrowers can get, so borrowers or those considering refinancing should not necessarily read this news and think that they can go out and get a loan with the quoted interest rate.
