Fixed-rate mortgages this week dropped to their lowest averages of the year, which analysts attribute to the fallout from last week’s “Brexit” vote. The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 3.48 percent this week, near its all-time record low of 3.31 percent in November 2012, Freddie Mac reports.
Freddie Mac reports the following national averages for the week ending June 30:
- 30-year fixed-rate mortgages: averaged 3.48 percent, with an average 0.5 point, falling from last week’s 3.56 percent average. Last year at this time, 30-year rates averaged 4.08 percent.
- 15-year fixed-rate mortgages: averaged 2.78 percent, with an average 0.4 point, dropping from last week’s 2.83 percent average. Last year at this time, 15-year rates averaged 3.24 percent.
