Mortgage rates took a big step lower on Friday after markets reacted to a social post by President Trump saying he would instruct Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to purchase $200 billion in mortgage bonds. The announcement overshadowed the jobs data and quickly shifted market focus. While no details have been released and no purchases have occurred yet, mortgage rates have already begun pricing in the expected bond buying.

Mortgage rates may be volatile this week, depending on if more details come out about the proposed bond purchases or if traders start to doubt the moves and shed some of the mortgage bonds purchased last week. If no new information comes out, rates will possibly creep up a bit this week. It is important this week to act with urgency and speak with your mortgage professional, these rates may not hold long.

Markets return to full trading this week, with plenty of economic and labor market data on the calendar. Rates arenโ€™t expected to move much overall, but we could see small day-to-day changes as the data is released, especially later in the week. Expected weakness in the labor data could help rates improve slightly this week.

- Labor market data: This week brings the first regular release of labor data since the government shutdown, starting with Wednesday's job opening and labor turnover survey, and ADP private payroll data. Thursday will bring unemployment claims, which the last few weeks have shown companies are hesitant to lay off current workers even though hiring is down. Friday's BLS jobs data will have the most effect on mortgage rates, and signs of further labor market softening could help rates improve.
- Other economic data: Some smaller reports this week could have a lesser effect on mortgage rates for the week, and aren't likely to cause any bigger moves in rates.

Rates are likely to remain relatively unchanged for a second straight week, as markets close early on Wednesday and remain closed on Thursday for New Yearโ€™s. While this week should stay calm, volatility could pick up early next week as traders return to work and fresh economic and labor market data is released. If you're currently in process, it's a good idea to check in with your mortgage professional this week to discuss the best time to consider locking in a rate.

Mortgage rates improved last week after unemployment moved higher and inflation moved lower. Rates didnโ€™t change much overall, but there was some improvement for the week, as inflation generally pressures rates higher and data showing inflation came in lower than expected helped rates move slightly lower.

Rates are not likely to move much between now and the end of the year, as traders generally take off the last couple of weeks of the year for the holidays. In fact, there will be no important economic data until January, when fresh jobs data from December is reported. This week is likely to see little or no movement in rates, nor will next week with the New Yearโ€™s holiday.

- Christmas holiday: Markets close at 2pm ET on Wednesday and are closed all day Thursday. Friday resumes normal trading; however, volume is usually extremely low as traders remain home for the holidays.
- Economic data: Only Tuesday brings any economic data this week, and it is unlikely mortgage rates will react to the final Q3 GDP figures. It should be a calm week with little data.

Mortgage rates were volatile last week, as expected. Rates started slightly higher but improved after the Fed meeting. That improvement wasnโ€™t driven by the policy rate cut itself, which had already been priced in, but by Chair Powellโ€™s comments during his press conference signaling the Fed could be open to additional cuts in 2026 if the data supports it.

Rates face another potentially volatile week as delayed labor market and inflation data is released in the same week following the shutdown. While day-to-day movement is likely, there shouldnโ€™t be any major moves pushing rates significantly higher or lower.

- Labor data: Tuesday brings November jobs data, including number of new jobs created and unemployment figures. The forecast is for a low jobs number, and if the report comes in higher it could be bad for rates.
- Inflation data: This week brings a fresh look at inflation, which could help mortgage rates if the data comes in lower than expected. However, if inflation remains stubbornly above the Fedโ€™s target, the numbers could instead put upward pressure on rates.

Mortgage rates lost a bit of ground last week, although it really wasn't much. Mortgage rates continued to reflect the expectation of a Fed policy rate cut this week, and there was little reaction to the limited amount of economic data for the week, including inflation data.

Rates still appear to have limited room for improvement, though that could change depending on the marketโ€™s reaction to Wednesdayโ€™s Fed meeting. Still, thereโ€™s a strong possibility we see a repeat of the last two Fed meetings, when mortgage rates moved higher afterward.

- The Fed: Markets expect the Fed to cut its policy rate by a quarter percent at this weekโ€™s meeting, but mortgage rates already reflect that cut and wonโ€™t move lower because of it. Instead, if markets sense the Fed may be done cutting for a while, the reaction could put upward pressure on mortgage rates.
- Fed Powell's press conference: Mortgage rates usually make the biggest move after the Fed meeting, during Fed Chair Jerome Powell's press conference. This could be especially true this week as Powell is asked about future Fed plans heading into 2026.

Feeling stuck between high home prices and mortgage rates? ๐Ÿ˜ฉ
Youโ€™re not alone, and honestly, it makes sense to feel that way. Many people feel like theyโ€™re being forced to choose between two hard options right now.

But hereโ€™s the thing I want you to really hear: the real cost of waiting is usually the part no one sees.
๐Ÿก Prices donโ€™t usually drop the way we wish they would
๐Ÿ“ˆ Rates donโ€™t always move on our timeline
๐Ÿ’ธ And every extra year of renting is money we never get back

I donโ€™t want you stressing yourself out trying to time the โ€œperfectโ€ moment; that moment rarely exists.
What does exist is a strategy that actually supports your life, your timing, and your budget.

Letโ€™s look at your numbers, slow things down, and talk through what makes sense for you.
You deserve clarity, confidence, and a plan, not more confusion. ๐Ÿ’ฌ

Mortgage rates continued to improve last week ahead of the holiday, and although rates only moved slightly lower they were near the best levels seen since October.

Rates may creep back up a bit this week, or at best will likely stay near current levels. It's tough to imagine mortgage rates can move much lower in the next couple of weeks, especially understanding that mortgage rates already reflect expectations that the Fed will cut policy rates one more time at its December meeting.

- Economic data: This week should have been a week filled with important labor market data ahead of next week's Fed meeting, but due to the government shutdown most of the reports have been delayed until later this month. However, there is still some data this week that could influence mortgage rates depending on how strong it shows the labor market and economy to be.
- The Fed: Markets are currently betting on a Fed policy rate cut at its next meeting, which is why mortgage rates have moved lower from earlier in November. If anything were to cause doubt about a coming cut, it could pressure mortgage rates slightly higher once again.
