🎯 Mortgage Rates Go Down After Jobs Report
TODAY’S RATES & HOUSING NEWS
4th of July week was a nice turnaround
for mortgage interest rates. After mortgage
interest rates went up the week prior, the
market rebounded with the Mortgage Backed
Security (MBS) trading up +70 bps. Interest
rates improved approximately .125% and
reversed the upward movement from the
week prior.
The highlight of the week was the BLS
Jobs Report.
The Job Creation number for June
2024 came in at 206,000 which was
slightly higher than estimates of
190,000. Although jobs came in higher
than expectations for June, there were
major negative revisions to the 2 prior
months of 111,000.
This along with the unemployment rate
going from 4% to 4.1%, helped set the
stage for hopefully a good July for
Mortgage Interest Rates.
Below is the Green Home Loans
rate sheet today. There are a lot of

to value, loan amount, costs, etc.
