According to Jin10's report, the mortgage interest rates in the United States have continued to decline for the fifth consecutive week, reaching the lowest level since June. This is a positive sign for potential homebuyers.
Data released by the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) on Wednesday showed that as of the week ending December 15th, contract rates for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages fell by 24 basis points to 6.83%. Although mortgage rates are still high, this steady decline is good news for the real estate market that has been impacted by a series of interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve this year. The data from this institution indicates that the real estate market may gain some momentum.
