Early morning volatility in the bond market yesterday forced lenders to increase Baltimore mortgage rates slightly at the open. Several lenders opted to delay the release of their rate sheets until the markets settled down.

Treasury yields and Mortgage-Backed Security prices then began to recover from their weakest levels which allowed lenders who released pricing early in the day to reprice for the better.

Overall, though, mortgage rates were a few basis points higher yesterday.

The Fed has pulled out of the Mortgage-Backed Securities market, putting additional upward pressure on mortgage rates.

Current Baltimore mortgage rates are as follows:

30-Year Fixed: 5.250% with 0 points

15-Year Fixed: 4.625% with 0 points
