Five Weeks of Declines Have Brought Mortgage Rates to Springtime Lows
In mid-May, mortgage rates spiked as the bond market reacted to news that President Trump’s proposed tax bill was gaining momentum in Congress. Experts have warned the legislation could widen the federal deficit by extending major tax cuts and increasing long-term government spending. That concern initially pushed 10-year Treasury yields sharply higher—triggering a jump in mortgage rates.
Since then, however, homebuyers have seen some relief, as mortgage rates have steadily declined across nearly every new purchase loan type over the past five weeks. Most averages are now at their lowest levels since early April—and in some cases, even March.
Below, we break down how rates have changed since the May spike for each new purchase loan average, followed by a closer look at 30-year, 15-year, and jumbo 30-year fixed-rate loans.
