Mortgage rates fell for the first time in nearly two months. The average rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage edged down to 7.76% this week from 7.79% a week ago, according to Freddie Mac data released Thursday.
Since rates last dipped in early September, borrowing costs for home loans have jumped by roughly two-thirds of a percentage point, setting fresh generational highs. Surging rates have been the key factor that has slowed the housing market to a crawl and put many mortgage companies in dire straits. Mortgage rates tend to roughly follow the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which has reversed course and started falling since hitting 5% last week.
