From Matthew Graham at Mortgage News Daily: Mortgage Rates Lowest in Weeks

Over the past few business days, the sideways momentum gradually began to give way to modest improvements. Lenders have been slow to adjust their rate sheet offerings, but as of today, the average lender is back in line with its lowest rates since September 9th. More than a few lenders offered mid-day improvements today. [Most Prevalent Rates 30YR FIXED - 3.75%]
