Mortgage rates declined for the second consecutive week, with 30-year rates reaching 7.31%. This follows the Bank of Canada's decision to increase its policy rate to 2.50% for the first time in over three years. Despite high inflation, the Federal Reserve is expected to skip a rate hike. Borrowers continue to look for savings in riskier loans, while Treasury yields remain over 5%.
