Although lender's adjusted mortgage loan pricing by a few basis points yesterday, for the most part mortgage rates were unchanged as the bond market failed to make much progress in either direction.

How Did the Employment Report Affect Mortgage Rates'
From San Diego Mortgage Group, 2 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Mortgage rates moved higher for the second day in a row yesterday as investors took profits and set up positions for the release of Non-Farm Payrolls data today. As a reminder, when mortgage-backed securities prices move lower, lenders are forced to offer higher mortgage rates.

From San Diego Mortgage Group, 2 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Although prices of mortgage backed securities moved higher yesterday, lenders were unwilling to move mortgage rates lower. This was a frustrating event for most originators and borrowers who were expecting to see at least modest improvements in the primary market (mortgage rates) as the secondary market (MBS trading) rallied. While a few lenders repriced for the better towards the end of the day, the gains were weak. As a reminder, as MBS prices rally, lenders are able to offer lower mortgage...
