US mortgage rates jump the most in four years
Original: US mortgage rates jump the most in four years in blow to housing market
US mortgage rates have recorded their sharpest weekly increase in four years, according to Financial Times reporting. The rise is a fresh setback for the American housing market, where elevated borrowing costs have already squeezed affordability and cooled sales. Higher rates raise monthly payments for buyers and could further dampen home purchases, refinancing activity and construction across the country.
Why now: The steep jump in borrowing costs directly affects homebuyers and signals renewed pressure on the US housing market.
