At the start of April, it was announced mortgage rates in the U.S. have risen for a seventh straight week. The average for a 30-year loan was 3.18%, which was up since last week when it was 3.17%. That was the highest since June, according to Freddie Mac data. Rates have gone up from their record low in January, which was 2.65%. The increase has meant homes are more expensive for buyers, and that’s coupled with the pressure of competing for a low inventory of properties. There have been bidding wars, particularly in certain parts of the country, as people have been moving out of apartments and urban areas, searching for more space during the pandemic. The National Association of Realtors reported their index of contracts to buy previously owned homes did go down in February, by the mos... 05/07/2021
