Bedford, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/11/2012 -- At a time when a global recession continues to show its drastic affect on the world economy, leaving the housing market and standard of living on the hitch, the mortgage rate in United States has declined significantly in the last week, with the aim to contribute towards housing recovery.

Last week, the mortgage rate on 30-year loan dropped to 3.59 percent from 3.66 percent. The average on the fixed mortgage loan for 15 years, which is commonly used for refinancing purposes, also slipped to 2.86 percent from 2.89 percent.

After this decline, the average fixed rates of mortgage in U.S are slightly above the lowest rates reached earlier in this year. If the rates for the mortgage loan continue to drop with the same trend in the next three months, it will definitely reach to the lowest level this year.

Committee members agreed that economic activity had decelerated more in recent months than they had anticipated at their last meeting in June. Some members even saw room for additional stimulus fairly soon if needed. “Frank said, according to Detroinews.com
