According to The Mortgage Bankers Association’s Weekly Applications Survey, the average contract interest rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages fell to 4.12 percent last week from 4.18 percent the week before. The drop brought rates to their lowest level this year. The average 30-year rate for jumbo loans also hit a new low for 2011, decreasing to 4.47 percent last week. The decline in rates led to a 4.1 percent increase in the Market Composite Index, which measures total loan application volume.
