30-year fixed mortgage rate fell to 6.37% on April 9, 2026, down from 6.46% previous week.
15-year fixed mortgage rate slipped to 5.74%, a slight decline from 5.77% last week and lower than 5.82% a year ago.
Freddie Mac Chief Economist Sam Khater said the rate drop is a positive development for homebuyers and may boost spring buying season.
