Mortgage Market in Review:
The Federal Reserve raised its benchmark rate (otherwise known as Prime) to 1.25%, up from 1.00%. This is the third time the Fed has raised this rate in the past 6 months. It is also a sign that the Fed is staying the course in its plan to wind down the stimulus program it has been implementing for the past nine years. How this ultimately impacts mortgage rates remains to be seen. The initial reaction has been stability, with mortgage rates not really doing anything. Whether or not this continues will depend on how analysts and traders digest the data from the Fed, and how that drives the markets moving forward.
