📰 Mortgage Rate Decrease Unlikely in March Despite 2024 Projections

Mortgage rates are anticipated to decline in 2024, but this trend is not expected to start in March. February saw an increase in the average 30-year mortgage rate, according to Freddie Mac's survey. The Federal Reserve's actions to control inflation have kept interest rates steady, with a reduction in the federal funds rate not foreseen for the March meeting.
