Question 3

How often does this page update?

Accepted Answer

Question 4

Why do mortgage rates not match Treasury yields exactly?

Accepted Answer

Mortgage rates track the 10-year Treasury yield as a benchmark, but lenders add a spread to cover servicing costs, default risk, and prepayment risk. The spread is typically 1.5-2.0 percentage points, which is why a 4.5% Treasury often pairs with a 6.0-6.5% 30-year fixed mortgage rate.
