Rates Hit NEW Record Low

The 30-year fixed mortgage rate fell this past week to a new record low of 4.09 percent, down from 4.12 percent a week earlier and 4.37 percent a year earlier, reports Freddie Mac; the company's statistics date back to 1971. Homeowners who refinance would be able to save almost $1,715 a year in interest payments on a $200,000 loan, calculates Freddie Mac chief economist Frank Nothaft. The 15-year fixed rate also fell to a new low, declining to 3.30 percent from 3.33 percent the previous week; Freddie Mac's data for those loans go back to 1991.
