Fifth Week Straight Of Rate Declines In 30-Year FRM
Feb 21, 2025 - By Aaron Marsh - Associate Editor
In slight ‘see-saw’ over time, rate inches down after five weeks of increases
The 30-year fixed rate mortgage (FRM) rate dipped slightly once again this week, averaging 6.85%
as of February 20, according to Freddie Mac’s latest Primary Mortgage Market Survey (PMMS).
It’s the fifth week that the average 30-year FRM rate has declined.
Still, the rate hasn’t budged all that much, such that it’s been closer to flat than a more substantial
turn downward. But, that could mean good things for both homebuyers and sellers,
according to the GSE.
“The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has stayed just under 7% for five consecutive weeks, and in that
time has fluctuated less than 20 basis points,” noted Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s chief economist,
in a release. “This stability continues to bode well for potential buyers and sellers as we approach
the spring homebuying season.”
A year ago at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 6.90%.
Meanwhile, the 15-year FRM rate averaged 6.04% as of February 20, down from last week when
it averaged 6.09% and a sliver below its 6.05% average two weeks ago. A year ago at this time,
the 15-year FRM averaged 6.29%, according to PMMS data.

The Treasury and FHFA illegal exaction due to violating Federal statutes
Sigh!! If only the law were relevant here. Federal, State, County, City, Common, Civil, Criminal or I would even settle for Soviet at this point. Hey - how about my HOA (wait, I am not talking to them). The closest I can think of is "DC Grannie's Rules" or "DC Grannie's Rules of Civil Procedure". But, unfortunately, they only apply for a radius of ten feet around Nats (evidently).
Nats always knew there was a reason he should have paid attention in CONLAW. But he must he have slept through it. Or skipped out to go to a day game (which Nats had been known to do).
As I have said before - neither the law, the facts or even reason itself applies here. The GSEs have been Star Trekking it for over 16 years - bolding going where no company has been before. And its been a ride so wild that, if we told folks about it in advance, they would have slapped the straight jacket on us.
Beam me up Scotty!!
