Most mortgage interest rates have decreased today. According to Zillow data, the average 30-year fixed rate is down five basis points, finally back down to 6.50%.

Mortgage rates opened 10 basis points worse than Friday’s close. Jobs and manufacturing data may move rates, but Trump’s tariffs will have a bigger impact.  For insights on how these changes affect homebuyers and mortgage strategies, Connor Bloskas from West Way Mortgage is available to provide expert guidance.
