Unbelievably Low!

During May the nation’s benchmark mortgage rate tied a record low. Average rates on 30-year, fixed rate mortgages, the most popular loan among home buyers, slid to 4.78 percent which tied the all-time low record since Freddie Mac’s annual survey began in 1971. As the table below shows, intrest rates this low make homeownership more affordable than ever.
