US mortgage rates still too high
Country: United States
23 December 2008
Americans are not reaping the full benefit of record low yields on Treasuries and government-supported mortgage bonds, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.
Although association data shows that the median rate on a fixed 30-year mortgage has fallen to 5.18% from 6.47% in October, the historical relationship between home loans and mortgage bonds shows rates are still around 0.5% too expensive.
Close to US$6.7 trillion (£4.54 trillion) of home-mortgage bonds were outstanding on September 30, with around 70% of those mortgage bonds guaranteed by government-chartered Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac or federal agency Ginnie Mae, according to Federal Reserve data.
Over 100 mortgage companies have failed since the start of 2007.
