Mortage Rates Today Render New Lows Thanks to Fed Buying $40 Billion a Month in MBSThe declines in average mortgage rates have been accelerating since the Federal Reserve announced they would buy $40 billion a month in mortgage backed securities. The Fed's announcement, which came right after their September meeting almost three week ago, caused an immediate drop in mortgage rates the following day and the trend has been lower ever since. Mortgage rates today on 30 year conventional mortgage loans are averaging 3.40 percent, down from last week's average 30 year mortgage rate of 3.56 percent. A week over week decline of 16 basis points is one of the largest declines in 2012. Prior to the Fed's change in policy average 30 year mortgage rates were in a tight range for several months. Current mortgage rates will head even lower the rest of 2012 and into 2013. Before this year is over average 30 year conforming mortgage rates might hit a new record low of around 3.20 percent and in 2013 we might see 30 year mortgage interest rates move below 3.00 percent.

The future direction of 15 year mortgage rates will also be lower the next 6 months.
