Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
The rates on 30-year fixed mortgages on Thursday — about 6.6% — rose to their highest since August 2025, according to weekly data posted by Freddie Mac. Those on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages increased to about 6% this week, the highest since June 2025, Freddie Mac said. Those price pressures come amid others for households, economists said. Average gasoline prices topped $4 a gallon again this week amid renewed tensions in the Iran war, according to data from the Energy Information Administration. The Trump administration also imposed a slew of new tariffs on dozens of countries on Friday. These import taxes raise costs for consumers and businesses, according to economists.
