Mortgage interest rates rose last week, but that didn't throw any cold water on the mini-refinance boom that's been going on for the last month.
Applications for loans to purchase a home, however, came in weaker. Consequently, total mortgage application volume was essentially flat, rising just 0.5% for the week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association's seasonally adjusted index. Despite the slight rate increase, applications to refinance a home loan rose 4% from the previous week and were 199% higher than the same week one year ago. At this time last year, the average rate on the 30-year fixed was 118 basis points higher, at 5.10%.
"Purchase applications slowed for the second week in a row," said Joel Kan, the MBA's associate vice president of economic and industry forecasting. "While near-term economic uncertainty is still a factor, other fundamental issues, such as a lack of housing inventory in many markets, is preventing purchase activity from meaningfully rising."
