Financial/Mortgage Update

Mortgage rates are down again for the Palos Verdes real estate market. A 30-year fixed conforming loan is 4.625% – That is a record low in Freddie Mac data going back to 1971!

Fixed mortgage rates in the U.S. fell for a second consecutive week as the Federal Reserve plan to buy mortgage-back securities helped drive rates lower. 18 properties on the Palos Verdes Peninsula went into escrow in the last week. I believe Buyers are realizing what a great opportunity this is for them and they are taking advantage of these historically low interest rates.
