Mortgage refi applications jump even as U.S. homebuyer demand stays soft, supply up

Mortgage refi applications jump even as U.S. homebuyer demand stays soft, supply up

U.S. mortgage numbers are confusing markets. Homeowners remain fast to tap refinancing on any rate pullback, but new buyers are staying on the sidelines, so builders’ inventory is not moving. Mortgage applications bounced 1.0% last week, per Mortgage Bankers Association data, after dropping 3.8% a week earlier. The uptick was driven by a 3% gain in refinancing, but purchase activity was down. The 30-year fixed conforming rate ticked lower, down to 6.59% from 6.60%.

Opendoor Technologies (OPEN) Stock Price Rebounds After Selloff as Mortgage Rates Rise Again

Opendoor Technologies (OPEN) Stock Price Rebounds After Selloff as Mortgage Rates Rise Again

Opendoor Technologies shares added roughly 2.4%, changing hands at $4.96 late Friday morning. The move retraced a portion of the losses from the prior session. The rebound is especially significant for Opendoor, given how sensitive the company is to shifts in financing costs right as the spring homebuying rush begins. Freddie Mac reported that the average rate for a 30-year fixed mortgage edged up to 6.11% this week, from 6.00%. Still, chief economist Sam Khater noted that buyers have been “responding to rates in this range,” and there was also an uptick in purchase applications.

  • SpaceX IPO Sends LA Luxury Home Prices Higher
    June 29, 2026, 10:27 PM EDT. SpaceX's $85 billion IPO is driving a spike in demand for high-end homes in Los Angeles. The deal, which briefly pushed Elon Musk to trillionaire status, is set to create more than 4,000 new millionaires-about 400 of them with over $100 million each. That new wealth has buyers eyeing up luxury properties, especially around Manhattan Beach. Local supply is already tight, sending prices up. The same real estate buzz is playing out in South Texas around SpaceX's Starbase. A similar trend hit San Francisco, as AI companies like Anthropic and OpenAI pumped up home prices above $2 million.
