What moves mortgage rates?

Mortgage rates are shaped by both the market and your personal loan scenario. Here are a few of the biggest things that matter.

🏭

The Fed & Bond Market

Mortgage rates often move with inflation expectations and 10-year Treasury yields. When inflation pressure rises, mortgage rates often rise too.

📄

Your Credit Score

Borrowers with stronger credit profiles often qualify for better pricing. Lower scores can mean a higher rate and a higher APR.

🏠

Loan Type & Down Payment

FHA, VA, USDA, jumbo, and conventional loans all price differently. Your down payment also plays a major role in final pricing.

💰

Points, APR & Fees

The headline rate is only part of the story. Discount points, lender fees, and APR all affect the true cost of the loan.

What actually affects your quote

Market averages are a useful starting point, but your personalized rate depends on the details of your scenario.

Credit Score High Impact
Down Payment % High Impact
Loan Type High Impact
Debt-to-Income Ratio Medium Impact
Property Type Medium Impact
Loan Amount Medium Impact
Points / Credits Medium Impact

Common questions about mortgage rates

These answers help explain what you are seeing on this page and why your personal quote may be different from the average market rate shown above.

Are these mortgage rates personalized to me?
No. These are average market rates based on mortgage market index data. They are meant to help you understand where the market is, but they are not a personalized quote or loan offer.
Why is there no APR on these cards?
APR depends on fees, points, and loan-level details that vary by borrower and lender. Since this page shows average market rate data, it should not be treated as a full APR quote.
Why does my actual rate differ from what I see here?
Your rate depends on factors like credit score, down payment, occupancy, loan amount, debt-to-income ratio, property type, and whether you pay discount points. Those details are not reflected in average market data.
What do the 7-day and 30-day changes mean?
Those comparisons show how the average market rate for that loan product has moved compared with seven days ago and thirty days ago. It is a simple way to show short-term market direction without using charts.
How often are these mortgage rates updated?
The rate engine is designed to update daily using mortgage market index data. The “Rates current as of” date on the page tells you the observation date for the latest available data.
What should I do if I want a real quote?
The next step is to request a personalized quote from Bayou Mortgage. That lets us look at your actual scenario and help you compare payment, fees, and loan options.
