Interest Rates Reach Record Highs for Mortgages
Washington reports mortgage rates climbed for the sixth straight month to a new peak. The average rate for new home loans rose to 8.07 percent, up 32 basis points from May, while existing mortgage rates increased to 6.18 percent. Boston and Atlanta showed wide regional variations, with Los Angeles posting the highest existing rate and Boston the lowest. The rise is tied to competition with other investments and tighter money conditions, as savings and loan deposits shrink amid stronger market yields.
