Mortgage rates on a 30 year fixed loan are currently near record lows, however news today from the Federal Reserve may mean they will go even lower.
According to an article published by CNBC.com:
The Fed said it will buy $40 billion of mortgage-backed securities per month in an attempt to foster a nascent recovery in the real estate market.
The move is aimed at boosting the economy, but should also keep rates near their current lows. Rates might even drop off a little bit in the wake of the buy back. Investors may also see this as a good time to pull some money out of the bond market and inject it into the stock market, which might make rates creep back up a little.
