Mortgage Rates Decline Amid Economic Uncertainty

- Rates for 30-year fixed mortgages have decreased to an average of 6.83%, down from a recent high of 6.88%.
- The Federal Reserve's recent rate cut has not led to a sustained drop in mortgage rates, which have fluctuated due to strong economic data.
- Experts suggest mortgage rates will likely stay above 6% in November, influenced by economic indicators and upcoming Federal Reserve decisions.
- Potential homebuyers are advised to monitor rates closely and be prepared to lock in favorable terms quickly due to market volatility.
- Future rate movements are expected to be influenced by economic data, with significant changes possible in early 2025.
