flag Mortgage rates remain high in September 2025, averaging 6.35% for 30-year fixed loans despite a Fed rate cut.

flag As of September 29, 2025, the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rate is 6.345%, up slightly from recent days and significantly higher than the 2.65% average seen in 2021. flag Despite the Federal Reserve’s first 2025 rate cut in September, rates remain elevated due to ongoing economic uncertainty, inflation concerns, and external risks like tariffs and geopolitical tensions. flag The average refinance rate stands at 6.60%, with ARMs averaging 7.18% for 5- and 7-year terms. flag While lower initial rates make ARMs attractive for some buyers, they carry risks due to future rate adjustments. flag Borrowers with strong credit and low debt-to-income ratios are more likely to secure favorable terms, and refinancing may benefit those seeking to reduce payments, access equity, or switch loan types, though closing costs and credit checks remain hurdles.
