Refinance Dominates Mortgage Applications in the Aftermath of Brexit
PR Newswire - Fri Jul 08, 7:00AM CDT
Mortgage rates have dropped to historical lows in the wake of Britain's decision to exit the European Union, and have sparked a surge of mortgage applications. Refinance mortgage requests on Zillow® jumped 132 percent, compared to pre-vote activity the previous week. Purchase mortgage requests also increased, but just by 24 percenti. Even after the immediate panic of the vote receded and the flight to bonds' safety has eased, home loan rates continue to drop and mortgage request activity has maintained its momentum: this week, refinance requests were up by 107.6 percent and purchase requests by 13.3 percent compared to two weeks ago.
