Freddie Mac released the results of its Primary Mortgage Market Survey on Sept. 3, 2026, revealing that the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 6.71%. The FRM remains stable, reflecting homebuyers’ adaptation to current market conditions.
“The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 6.71% this week,” said Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s Chief Economist. “Purchase demand has remained relatively stable, indicating steady interest from buyers adapting to evolving market conditions.”
The 30-year FRM is up from the week before when it averaged 6.66%. A year ago at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 6.50%.
The 15-year FRM averaged 6.04%, up from 5.98% the previous week. A year ago at this time, the 15-year FRM averaged 5.60%.
