30-Year Fixed Mortgage Rates Hold Steady for Second Consecutive Week; Current Rate is 3.75%, According to Zillow Mortgage Rate Ticker
SEATTLE, Sept. 15, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The 30-year fixed mortgage rate on Zillow® Mortgages is currently 3.75 percent, up one basis point from this time last week. The 30-year fixed mortgage rate hovered around 3.73 percent throughout the week before rising to the current rate Tuesday.
"Mortgage rates held steady last week," said Erin Lantz, vice president of mortgages at Zillow. "We expect rates to remain calm leading up to Thursday's Federal Open Market Committee statement as markets eagerly anticipate any signal or action from the Fed on interest rates."
Zillow's real-time mortgage rates are based on thousands of custom mortgage quotes submitted daily to anonymous borrowers on the Zillow Mortgages site and reflect the most recent changes in the market. These are not marketing rates, or a weekly survey.
The rate for a 15-year fixed home loan is currently 2.90 percent, while the rate for a 5-1 adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) is 2.76 percent.
Purchase Mortgage Application Activity
Zillow predicts tomorrow's seasonally adjusted Mortgage Bankers Association Weekly Application Index will show purchase loan activity increased by 11 percent from the week prior. Zillow combines loan requests made on Zillow Mortgages last week with the previous week's Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) Weekly Application Index to predict the MBA's Weekly Application Index for purchase loans, which will be released tomorrow.
