Joo, niinpä Jenkkien asuntolainakorot tippuvat jo viidettä viikkoa. Ja heillä käyvät korot ovat muuten 6.48% luokkaa, joten meillä on siihenkin viellä matkaa...Lisäksi kaikesta huolimatta 2006 vuodesta ennusteiden mukaan tulee ennätyksellinen myyntivuosi koskaan. Että sellaista "rommausta"...

U.S. mortgage rates fall for the fifth week
2006 still set to be third biggest year ever for overall home sales
CHICAGO (MarketWatch) -- U.S. mortgage rates dipped for the fifth straight week, according to Freddie Mac's weekly survey, released Thursday.
The Federal Reserve's acknowledgment that it is closely monitoring the housing market as it slows from last year's record pace is partially responsible for the trend, said Frank Nothaft, Freddie Mac's chief economist
"Although this fuels arguments about whether we will experience a soft landing or a bursting housing bubble, market watchers also perceive that it possible that the Fed may stop raising short-term interest rates over the near term. This perception takes upward pressure off mortgage rates," he said.
"Meanwhile, although both existing- and new-home sales for July fell below market expectations -- confirming the slowdown in the housing market -- we still expect 2006 to be the third highest year on record for total sales."

The housing market is deteriorating by the month.
In the latest and strongest indication that the home buying and selling frenzy is over.
