About these rates

These are Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey (PMMS) national average rates for conventional, conforming, fixed-rate mortgages, sourced from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis (FRED). They are published weekly. Mortgage rates track the 10-year Treasury yield closely, so they move with inflation data, Fed policy and the broader bond market, all of which you can follow on our economic calendar. This page is informational and not a rate quote or financial advice.
