Mortgage rates tumble for the second week in a row

The latest data from the Mortgage Bankers Association reveals a significant surge in home-purchase applications as mortgage rates dip below 7% for the first time in over a month. The 7.1% jump in the mortgage applications index signals renewed interest in the housing market. The average rate on a 30-year loan dropped to 6.87%, influenced by economic data indicating a weaker service sector and job market. Homebuyers are responding positively to the declining rates, with a 5% increase in applications for home purchases. Additionally, there's a 12% rise in refinancing applications. While the recent percentage increases are substantial, overall refinance activity remains relatively low. As the interest rate-sensitive housing market adjusts to these changes, economists predict a gradual decline in mortgage rates in the coming months, providing some relief to buyers amidst rising home prices.
