Percent growthAccording to Bloomberg & BankRate.com, the national average mortgage rate (based on a  80% LTV and a 740+ credit score assumption) has seen significant movement in the past month:

  • Today’s national average 30 year fixed mortgage rate is 4.51%
  • One month ago the national average 30 year fixed mortgage rate was 3.75%
  • Today’s national average rate is already up 1.13% from the average low of 3.38% in 12/2012. 0.76% of the increase has occurred in just the last month.

In Arizona, the average rate started at 3.43% in the beginning of May and ended the month at 4.21%. For the month of June, the average rate has risen from 4.05% at the beginning of the month all the way to 4.61% as of today.

What affects will these significant jumps in rates have on the residential recovery? Is it a good thing temporarily to encourage pent up demand to act quickly?
