First off, I apologize. You’re right. How would I know exactly what you’ve been told about mortgage rates today? I can only draw the same sort of general conclusion that is so frequently drawn on Thursdays during weeks with lots of rate volatility. The conclusion is that there is an abundance of mortgage rate coverage hitting the presses today suggesting rates are “only” up about .2% from 6.12 to 6.32. We know that much is true because that’s the change published in today’s Freddie Mac survey. News media and even the housing/mortgage industries rely heavily on Freddie’s survey to provide an authoritative weekly update on rates. Freddie’s survey isn’t bad or inaccurate. It’s just stale. Due to its methodology, it is essentially a measure of this past Monday’s rates versus the previous Monday, but not reported until Thursday. At that point, news organizations write their stories on rates and consumers read the coverage on Thursday afternoon or Friday morning. Unfortunately, the media coverage gives consumers the impression that rates are still where they were on Monday. They’re not… Mortgage rates can change much more quickly than many people realize, and the past few weeks have been great examples. In fact, it was EXACTLY 2 weeks ago (Thursday, Feb 2) that the average lender could offer 5.99% on a top notch conventional 30yr fixed mortgage. Today, that same lender would be closer to 6.75-6.875%.
The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) survey for the week ending Oct. 21 shows that rising mortgage rates have had a big impact on mortgage demand.

Peer-to-peer lending has come on strong since the financial meltdown – and not by coincidence. That was about the time that banks decided they werenât lending to anybody. The decision opened up an opportunity for the free market to provide another way for people to borrow money. And that’s when the peer-to-peer phenomenon started getting […]
