Rates are each lender's own published rate, collected each weekday from their public rate pages and feeds. Each cell shows the lender's final posted rate / APR of the week of August 3–7, 2026 — the APR is the better cross-lender comparison, since posted rates reflect each lender's own assumptions about credit, points, and loan size. A figure in parentheses is the change from the lender's first to last posted rate of the week; a '—' means the lender doesn't post that product.

By product, across the lenders that post each one:

  • 30-Year Fixed — ended the week lower at 3 of the 6 lenders with more than one reading, higher at 0, unchanged at 3; week-ending posted rates run from 5.5% (AmeriSave) to 6.75% (Rocket Mortgage).
  • 15-Year Fixed — ended the week lower at 1 of the 6 lenders with more than one reading, higher at 0, unchanged at 5; week-ending posted rates run from 4.75% (AmeriSave) to 6.125% (New American Funding).
  • 20-Year Fixed — ended the week lower at 2 of the 2 lenders with more than one reading, higher at 0, unchanged at 0; week-ending posted rates run from 6.375% (U.S. Bank) to 6.625% (Bank of America).
  • FHA 30-Year Fixed — ended the week lower at 0 of the 2 lenders with more than one reading, higher at 0, unchanged at 2; week-ending posted rates run from 6.125% (New American Funding) to 6.5% (U.S. Bank).
  • VA 30-Year Fixed — ended the week lower at 2 of the 4 lenders with more than one reading, higher at 0, unchanged at 2; week-ending posted rates run from 5.875% (Veterans United) to 6.25% (U.S. Bank).
  • 7/6 ARM — ended the week lower at 3 of the 3 lenders with more than one reading, higher at 0, unchanged at 0; week-ending posted rates run from 6.125% (Bank of America) to 6.25% (Wells Fargo).

The week's biggest lender moves: AmeriSave's 30-Year Fixed Refinance went from 6.125% to 5.99% (−0.135); AmeriSave's 30-Year Fixed went from 5.625% to 5.5% (−0.125); Wells Fargo's 30-Year Fixed went from 6.625% to 6.5% (−0.125).

Across the week, posted 30-year fixed rates in the tracked set ran from 5.5% (AmeriSave) to 6.875% (Rocket Mortgage). At the week's close, the gap between the cheapest and most expensive posted 30-year rate is 1.25 points (AmeriSave at 5.5% vs Rocket Mortgage at 6.75%) — on a $400,000 loan, about $323 a month. That spread is larger than any single lender's 30-year move this week — lender shopping still matters more than timing.

Week over week — each rate's closing level against the same lender's posted rate a week earlier — 4 of the 27 tracked rates with a prior-week reading ended lower, 0 higher, and 23 unchanged. The largest week-over-week change: AmeriSave's 30-Year Fixed, down 0.125 points.

AmeriSave also posts refinance pricing: 30-year fixed ending the week at 5.99% (6.478% APR), −0.135 on the week and 15-year fixed ending the week at 5.25% (6.069% APR).

In the broader market, the 10-year Treasury yield — the benchmark long-term mortgage pricing most closely tracks — ended the week at 4.69% (close of Thursday, August 6, per FRED), down 6 basis points from the prior week's last close. That is not a move that repriced the market: there is no clear macro driver behind this week's posted-rate changes, and week-to-week drift of this size is routine lender-level pricing.
