Mortgage Applications, Loan Rates Fall
Mortgage applications fell for the first time since July, according to a report released Wednesday by the Mortgage Bankers Association.
Last week's 2.2% seasonally adjusted decline in applications, compared to the week prior, came despite a drop in mortgage rates. Fixed rate 30-year mortgages averaged 5.15% last week, down from 5.24% a week ago, the MBA said. Applications for loans to refinance and purchase also pushed lower, falling 3.1% and 1.0%, respectively, when compared to the week prior.
