SEATTLE, Dec. 20, 2016 -- The 30-year fixed mortgage rate on Zillow® Mortgages is currently 4.10 percent, up 16 basis points from this time last week. The 30-year fixed mortgage rose early last week, rising above 4 percent for the first time in two years, then hovered around 4.14 percent before dipping to the current rate.
“Mortgage rates rose to their highest levels in two years following last Wednesday’s much-anticipated rate hike and the latest economic projections by the Fed, which indicated more rate hikes are likely in 2017,” said Erin Lantz, vice president of mortgages at Zillow. “This week, as markets wind down for the holiday season, lenders are expected to price conservatively going into the weekend.”
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 3.28 percent, while the rate for a 5-1 adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) is 3.19 percent.
