Delaware mortgage rates once again jumped higher last week which marks the eighth straight week mortgage rates have moved higher since May 1st.  If you look at the mortgage bond chart below you can see that mortgage bonds sold off on Wednesday after Ben Bernanke made comments after the Federal Open Market Committee released their meeting minutes. Bernanke’s comments caused stock, bonds, and oil to sell off as he stated the economy was doing better so the Federal Asset purchase program would begin tapering purchasing this year and end it by mid-2014. This was in contrast to what the Federal Reserve has been saying so markets went crazy. Bonds sold off again on Thursday and then again on Friday which moved mortgage rates back to where they were in October 2011. We are recommending cautiously FLOATING your Delaware mortgage rate to start the week as mortgage bonds may seem cheap here and we may get buyers coming back into the market. Keep Reading...
