Reported about 1 month ago

As of August 30, 2024, mortgage rates continue to decline with a notable drop of 83 basis points from last year, according to Freddie Mac. The current rates for 30-year fixed mortgages stand at 6.35%, while 15-year fixed rates are at 5.51%. This decrease places potential homebuyers in a more favorable position compared to the previous year, while expectations are high for the Federal Reserve to cut rates further, potentially leading to even lower mortgage rates in the future.
