NEW YORK - U.S. mortgage applications fell from their highest level in 2-1/2 years as refinancing activity pulled back in step with an increase in home borrowing costs, the Mortgage Bankers Association said on Wednesday. The Washington-based group’s seasonally adjusted index on requests for loans to buy a home and refinance a mortgage declined by 5.6% TO 475.6 in the week ended April 5. The previous week’s reading was the strongest since the week of Oct. 14, 2016.
Interest rates on 30-year “conforming” mortgages, or home loans with balances of $484,350 or less, averaged 4.40%, up from the prior week’s 4.36% which was the lowest since the week of Jan. 19, 2018.
