Seattle Real Estate Mortgage Rates Today 5/4/11
Seattle / Bellevue Real Estate Mortgage Rate Watch: Mortgage Rates are at the BEST levels of 2011!!!! CURRENT and FUTURE HOME OWNERS are you prepared to take advantage of these rates? Why are they at these levels? Today two reports disappointed the markets that has shifted monies from stocks to bonds coming to the benefit of mortgage rates. The ADP payroll report missed market expectations reporting 179,000 jobs created compared to the target of 200,000. The second report was the Institute of Supply Management Services Index. Investopedia explains ISM Manufacturing Index.
“By monitoring the ISM Manufacturing Index, investors are able to better understand national economic conditions. When this index is increasing, investors can assume that the stock markets should increase because of higher corporate profits. The opposite can be thought of the bond markets, which may decrease as the ISM Manufacturing Index increases because of sensitivity to potential inflation.”
