The 30-year fixed mortgage rate on Zillow® Mortgages is currently 3.85 percent, up 7 basis points from this time last week. The 30-year fixed mortgage jumped on Friday, then hovered around the current rate for the rest of the week.

“Mortgage rates jumped by about 10 basis points last week as the post-election political landscape continues to evolve and following Janet Yellen’s Thursday testimony to Congress which suggested that a December Federal Funds rate hike is very much in play. Mortgage rates are now at their highest levels in a year, about 40 basis points above where they stood on the eve of the U.S. presidential election,” said Erin Lantz, vice president of mortgages at Zillow. “This week, rates should stabilize as markets focus on the Thanksgiving holiday."

Zillow’s real-time mortgage rates are based on thousands of custom mortgage quotes submitted daily to anonymous borrowers on the Zillow Mortgages site and reflect the most recent changes in the market. These are not marketing rates, or a weekly survey.

The rate for a 15-year fixed home loan is currently 3.05 percent, while the rate for a 5-1 adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) is 2.96 percent.
