*Effective rate on loans closed on existing homes - Federal Housing Finance Agency. Adjustable mortgage rates are not available since 2010.

Note: Starting in May 2019, FHFA discontinued the release of several mortgage rates and only published an adjustable rate mortgage called PMMS+ based on

Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey. With these changes, NAR will no longer release the HAI Composite Index (based on 30-year fixed rate and ARM)

and will only release the HAI based on a 30-year mortgage. NAR calculates the 30-year effective fixed rate based on Freddie Mac's 30-year fixed mortgage

contract rate, 30-year fixed mortgage points and fees, and a median loan value based on the NAR median price and a 20 percent down payment.

**Based on a 25% qualifying ratio for monthly housing expense to gross monthly income with a 20% down payment.
