According to Freddie Mac’s latest Primary Mortgage Market Survey, the average U.S. mortgage rates continued to move lower in late August 2017.

Sean Becketti, chief economist of Freddie Mac says, “The 10-year Treasury yield fell to a new 2017-low on Tuesday. In response, the 30-year mortgage rate dropped 4 basis points to 3.82 percent, reaching a new year-to-date low for the second consecutive week. However, recent releases of positive economic data could halt the downward trend of mortgage rates.”
