Mortgage rates rose again in the past week as Fed members continued to deliver hawkish speeches to prepare the markets for further rate increases. For the week ending September 8, 30-year rates rose to 5.89% from 5.66% the week before. In addition, 15-year loans climbed to 5.16% and the average for five-year ARMs increased to 4.64%. A year ago, 30-year fixed rates averaged 2.88%, more than 3.00% lower than today. Attributed to Sam Khater, Chief Economist, Freddie Mac, “Mortgage rates rose again as markets continue to manage the prospect of more aggressive monetary policy due to elevated inflation.”
