SEATTLE, April 25, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The 30-year fixed mortgage rate on Zillow® Mortgages is currently 3.79 percent, up seven basis points from this time last week. The 30-year fixed mortgage rate rose steadily throughout the week before settling at the current rate.
“Mortgage rates climbed over the week for the first time since early March, rising about 10 basis points after touching their lowest levels since November last week,” said Erin Lantz, vice president of mortgages at Zillow. “The rebound in rates was driven by a collective financial market sigh of relief as a political moderate won the most votes in the first round of France’s presidential election, the prospect of growth-boosting tax reform in the US. This week rates should be more stable leading up to Friday’s Q1 GDP report.”
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 3.03 percent, while the rate for a 5-1 adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) is 2.89 percent.
