Current Mortgage and Refinance Rates
Mortgage rates are significantly lower than last weekend. The Zillow lender marketplace is reporting an average 30-year fixed mortgage of 6.15%, down seven basis points from last weekend. The average 15-year fixed rate is 5.64%.
According to the latest Zillow data, current mortgage rates include a 20-year fixed at 5.97%, a 5/1 ARM at 6.44%, and a 7/1 ARM at 6.36%. For VA loans, averages are 5.73% for a 30-year term, 5.38% for a 15-year term, and 5.58% for a 5/1 ARM.
Current mortgage refinance rates, according to the latest Zillow data, include a 30-year fixed at 6.26%, a 15-year fixed at 5.74%, and a 20-year fixed at 6.21%. For adjustable-rate refinances, the 5/1 ARM averages 6.39% and the 7/1 ARM averages 6.76%. VA refinance averages are 5.44% for 30-year, 5.25% for 15-year, and 5.21% for 5/1 terms. These figures are national averages.
Comparing Mortgage Terms
A 30-year mortgage term is the most popular type because it results in a lower monthly payment. A 15-year mortgage comes with a lower interest rate but requires a higher monthly payment, though it leads to significantly less interest paid over the life of the loan.
Fixed-Rate and Adjustable-Rate Mortgages
A fixed-rate mortgage locks in the rate for the entire life of the loan. An adjustable-rate mortgage keeps the rate the same for a predetermined period before it changes periodically. For example, with a 7/1 ARM, the rate is locked for the first seven years, then changes every year. Adjustable rates typically start lower than fixed rates, but lately, some fixed rates have been starting lower.
Securing a Favorable Rate
Lenders typically give the lowest mortgage rates to people with higher down payments, excellent credit scores, and low debt-to-income ratios. Improving these personal financial factors can be an effective method for obtaining a better rate.
When selecting a lender, it is advisable to apply for preapproval with several companies within a short time frame for accurate comparison. The annual percentage rate (APR), which factors in the interest rate and fees, reflects the true annual cost of borrowing and is a critical figure for evaluation.
