Delaware mortgage rates moved higher last week from fears that the Federal Reserve may start tapering at their December meeting versus waiting till 2014. If you look at the mortgage bond chart below you can see that mortgage bonds have been on a roller coaster ride but the long term trend is still for mortgage bonds to move lower which will cause home loan interest rates to move higher in the long term.
