MARKET NEWS
- MND — 30yr Mortgage Rates Jump to 5.25%, Highest Since 2009. “The last few days of March offered some hope that 2022’s massive rate spike might be slowing down. The first few days of April crushed those hopes and things have only gotten worse as the new week begins. After breaking above 5% by the end of last week, Monday morning brought the average 30yr fixed rate up to 5.25%, a level not seen since 2009.”
- MND — Mortgage Credit Remains Tight. “Two full years after the COVID-19 virus upended life the Mortgage Bankers Association’s (MBA’s) Mortgage Credit Availability Index (MCAI) remains some 50 points below the range where it had hovered for several years before the pandemic hit. MBA says the index, fell 07 percent in March, to 125.1. A decline in the MCAI indicates that lending standards are tightening, while increases in the index are indicative of loosening credit. The MCAI has four components. The Conventional MCAI increased 0.3 percent, while the Government MCAI decreased by 1.6 percent. Of the component indices of the Conventional MCAI, the Jumbo MCAI increased by 1.5 percent, and the Conforming MCAI fell by 1.9 percent.”
