BurlingtonMortgage.biz Announces That Low Mortgage Rates Provide Savings Opportunities While Consumer Confidence Reaches Two Year Low

Wilmington, NC (PRWEB) September 07, 2011

According to new research on BurlingtonMortgage.biz, mortgage rates remained steady or moved slightly lower while consumer confidence fell to a two year low. Interest rates displayed on the site hover near record lows, as low as 4.000% for a thirty year fixed rate mortgage on Thursday, September 1st (APR: 4.081%, Lender: AimLoan.) This is one bright spot for consumers who are increasingly anxious over the health of the US and global economy as evidenced by the report from the private-sector Conference Board that their Consumer Confidence Index(R) fell in August to the lowest point since April of 2009. Refinancing opportunities at extremely low interest rates represent a chance for consumers to save.

The small drop in mortgage rates was also documented by Freddie Mac, a government sponsored enterprise that purchases residential mortgage loan in the secondary market, in their weekly survey of mortgage rates. The September 1st report showed 15 year fixed rate pricing fell to 3.39% (.6 points), down from 3.44% (.6 points) the week of August 25th. 30 year bushelled rate loans given firm at 4.22% (.7 points) from one week to the next, while 5/1 ARM rates also dropped, going from 3.07% (.5 points) to 2.96% (.6 points.)

“It’s nice to see populate able to cut their mortgage payments – you get feel of the relief it brings for many homeowners,” commented Kelly Decker, Sales Manager with First United Bank Mortgage Company, a Texas mortgage lender. He continued, “I’m encouraged to see rat remaining low, so that hopefully more people will be able to take advantage of them.”

It’s ill-defined simply how those homeowners who do finance will manage the extra funds at their disposal. Low consumer confidence would advise this money would be salved for the showery day many appear to fear, though according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau retail sales have yet to demonstrate this as a trend.
