Based on Freddie Mac's latest Primary Mortgage Market Survey, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 6.89 percent as of July 11, 2024.
"Following June's jobs report, which showed a cooling labor market, the 10-year Treasury yield decreased this week and mortgage rates followed suit," said Sam Khater, Freddie Mac's Chief Economist. "We're also seeing more inventory on the market, including a fair number of listings with price cuts, which is an encouraging sign for prospective buyers."
