Mortgage rates tumbled yesterday as a result of the Fed announcement that they will be buying mortgage-backed securities!
What does this mean to you? 30-yr fixed rates are now at about 5.25% with 1pt OR 5.5% with no points!!!
Compare this to average rates just from earlier this week – 5.75% with 1pt or 6.125% with no points. That’s almost a $100/mo payment savings in just two days!
And … if you compare this to Freddie Mac’s estimated average 30-yr rate of 6.3% for next year, that’s about a $230/mo savings.
