SEATTLE, Aug. 22, 2017 -- The 30-year fixed mortgage rate on Zillow® Mortgages is currently 3.65 percent, down two basis points from this time last week. The 30-year fixed mortgage rate fell late in the week, then hovered around the current rate for the rest of the week.
“Despite some volatility early in the week driven by geopolitical uncertainty and domestic political turmoil, mortgage rates ended last week roughly where they started it near 10-month lows,” said Erin Lantz, vice president of mortgages at Zillow. “With little economic data on the schedule for this week, rates are likely to be relatively flat.”
Zillow’s real-time mortgage rates are based on thousands of custom mortgage quotes submitted daily to anonymous borrowers on the Zillow Mortgages site and reflect the most recent changes in the market. These are not marketing rates, or a weekly survey.
The rate for a 15-year fixed home loan is currently 2.92 percent, and the rate for a 5-1 adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) is also 2.92 percent.
