    Rates Keep Dropping

    According to Fannie Mae, mortgage interest rates keep dropping.

    Mortgage borrowing costs continued a downward trend this past week, according to Freddie Mac, as 30-year fixed rates dipped to the lowest point of the year and 15-year fixed interest fell to an all-time low. Freddie Mac said interest on the former averaged 4.32 percent, while the latter settled at 3.5 percent. The favorable rates sent loan applications up more than 20 percent, the Mortgage Bankers Association indicated, with refinance activity climbing 30 percent.

    If you can get a loan, now is a great time to buy.
