“Global growth concerns and lackluster inflation convinced the Fed to defer a hike in the Federal funds rate. In response, Treasury yields fell about 9 basis points over the week. In response, the interest rate on 30-year fixed rate mortgages dropped by 5 basis points. Mortgage rates have remained below 4 percent for 9 consecutive weeks. These low mortgage rates have supported strong home sales, and 2015 is on pace to have the highest home sales total since 2007.”
– Sean Becketti, chief economist, Freddie Mac
