Mortgage applications on the rise

 | Add a comment

Here’s a bit of good news from the Mortgage Bankers Association. They have reported that last week there was a slight increase in the amount of mortgage applications received by 11%. According to the report, application submitted for refinancing has gone up to 15%, while loan applications for home purchases has gone up to 6.7%. Now despite all of this good news, rising unemployment and the continued global economic issues, will more than likely keep the housing industry on a slow rebound.
