And the Fed said… [LIVE MORTGAGE RATE POST]

20140504_210758Mortgage rates are pretty much unchanged following yesterday’s sell off in the bond market causing rates to trend higher. Today at 11:00 am Seattle time, the Fed will release the minutes from the last FOMC meeting. This tends to influence mortgage rates so I thought it would be interesting to do a live rate mortgage rate post. You can follow me on Twitter @mortgageporter to see when I’ve updated this post.

Rates quoted below will be based on a sales price of $500,000 with 20% down payment, loan amount of $400,000. Borrowers have credit scores of 740 or higher. Rates quoted are subject to credit approval and may change at anytime. If I can provide you with a mortgage rate quote, click here.
