The number of US mortgage applications increased for the 4th consecutive week as mortgage rates decreased to nearly a 3-month low. However, despite this increase, the number of people submitting loan applications to buy houses remains at extremely low levels. When looking at pre-COVID levels, purchase applications haven't been this low since approximately 1995. This is based on a new report from the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) that was published on 11/29/23 (link below).
I also discuss other leading indicators of home buying demand in today’s video. Link below for all the reports I shared.
