- 30-year rates hit their highest level since August 2025
- 30-year rates up 23 basis points over the past month
- Persistent inflation and geopolitical tensions driving increases
On a $400,000 loan, the rate increase from 6.00% to 6.53% adds approximately $135 per month to principal and interest payments. This reduces buying power by roughly $22,000-$27,000 for buyers keeping the same payment budget.
