| 10. U.S. mortgage applications decrease last week-MBA |
|
Edited on Wed Jun-01-05 07:35 AM by UpInArms
http://www.reuters.com/financeNewsArticle.jhtml?jsessio... NEW YORK, June 1 (Reuters) - Applications for U.S. home mortgages fell last week due to decreasing purchasing and refinancing activity even as mortgage rates eased, an industry group said on Wednesday.
The Mortgage Bankers Association said its seasonally adjusted index of mortgage application activity decreased 2.8 percent to 709.1, partially offsetting the previous week's 4.3 percent gain.
The MBA's seasonally adjusted index of refinancing applications dropped 1.2 percent to 2142.1, after rising 6.4 percent the prior week.
The MBA's purchase index, a gauge of loan requests for home purchases, fell 4.1 percent to 462.7, after climbing 2.8 percent the previous week.
According to the MBA, fixed 30-year mortgage rates averaged 5.61 percent last week, excluding fees, down 2 basis points from 5.63 percent the previous week. Rates are lower than early April, when the fixed 30-year mortgage was at 5.91 percent.
