“Mortgage activity continued to stall, with applications dipping to the slowest weekly pace since 1995," Joel Kan, MBA’s Vice President and Deputy Chief Economist, said in a release. "These higher mortgage rates are keeping prospective homebuyers out of the market and continue to suppress refinance activity. The ARM share of applications inched up to 9.5 percent, its highest since November 2022.”
