The weekly mortgage rate chart illustrates the average 30-year fixed interest rate in six-hour interval.
Mortgage rates for 30-year fixed loans fell this week, with the current rate borrowers were quoted on Zillow Mortgages at 3.75 percent, down from 3.76 percent at this time last week.
The 30-year fixed mortgage rate hovered around 3.80 percent last week, peaking at 3.88 percent on Monday before returning to the current rate.
"Rates increased less than expected last week considering the positive economic data releases and Friday's impressive employment report," said Erin Lantz, vice president of mortgages at Zillow. "With little incoming data or policy announcements scheduled for release this week, we expect rates to remain stable while markets look ahead toward next week's Federal Open Market Committee meeting."
Additionally, the 15-year fixed mortgage rate Tuesday morning was 3.0 percent, and for 5/1 ARMs, the rate was 2.84 percent.
