Mortgage Rates Lowest in a Month
MORTGAGE NEWS DAILY

Nov 16 2018, 6:19PM

Mortgage rates hit their lowest levels of THE month yesterday, and the lowest levels in A month today. It's a bit of a technicality, really. As of yesterday, there were a few days in mid-to-late October that saw lower rates. Today's drop means we'd need to go back to early October to see anything lower.

What's the significance of being at the lowest levels in a month? None, really. It's just really fun to be able to say such things in an environment where such things haven't been easily said for quite some time! Perhaps more relevant and more tangible is the fact that we can say rates are nearly an eighth of a percentage point lower on the week, and that's a decent move regardless of the environment.
