The average rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage rose to 6.87%, the highest since June 2025, fueled by rising oil prices linked to renewed hostilities in the Iran war. This increase has pushed rates up 12 basis points since last Thursday and over 30 basis points in two months, raising monthly payments significantly for homebuyers. Higher rates reduce mortgage qualification chances and coincide with rising home prices due to limited supply. The situation disrupts earlier expectations of falling rates this year and may keep financing costs elevated for buyers.
