Mortgage rates today on fixed conforming 30 year mortgage rates declined to a record low of 3.73 percent. 30 year rates today are lower than the Mortgage Banker Association’s average 30 year rate of 3.91 percent set on May 25th which is also a low. You can expect next week’s MBA survey to have even lower average rates.
30 year jumbo current mortgage rates averaged 4.23 percent in the survey, this is down from the May 18th average jumbo mortgage rate of 4.25 percent. There are many lenders offering 30 year jumbo mortgage rates under 4.00 percent.
