Interest Rates Edging Up

We had two mid-day rate increases yesterday for conforming and jumbo loans. We have gone from 5% to 5.25% on conforming.



The secondary market on Jumbo is still not in good shape which is causing some of our lenders to move from 80% LTV to 75%.



If you have clients waiting thinking that homes prices may fall further they may lose any of those potential gains by increased interest rate. I will keep everyone posted rates tend to bounce around.
