Mortgage Rates Fall This Week
Average interest on long-term mortgages went down slightly this week, after rising in the four previous weeks. Freddie Mac reports that 30-year fixed mortgage rates averaged 5.09 percent, down from 5.14 percent a week ago, but higher than the 5.01 percent it reached this time last year.
Other mortgage rates performed as follows:
- 15-year, fixed loans fell 0.4 percent to 4.5 percent.
- Five-year adjustable-rate mortgages stayed flat.
- One-year ARMs declined 0.03 percent to 4.31 percent.

From what I hear through 2010 it is expected that the rates will rise. I doubt they can get that much lower so people looking to take advantage of these low rates should jump on them.
