What happened

Well supportedReported by 12 independent outlets

The 10-year Treasury yield reached its highest point since July 2007, pushing 30-year fixed mortgage rates above 7% as of late September 2026. The Mortgage Bankers Association raised its forecast for mortgage rates through mid-2027, citing elevated inflation and government bond yields. Consequently, the MBA reduced projections for single-family mortgage origination volumes.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Rising borrowing costs are causing potential home buyers to delay purchases. While fixed-rate mortgage demand is softening, the share of adjustable rate mortgages grew to 9.8% this week. The Federal Reserve's monetary policy and inflation outlook are maintaining pressure on long-term borrowing costs.
