Mortgages rates jump, Freddie Mac survey says



    Mortgage rates climbed higher in the past week, with the average rate for the benchmark 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rising to 3.80% from 3.68% in the prior week, according to the latest Freddie Mac survey.
    The 15-year fixed rate averaged 3.02%, up from 2.94% a week ago.
    The rates rose to their highest levels since March, as a selloff in German bunds helped drive U.S. Treasury yields above 2.2%.
    A year ago, the respective 30-year and 15-year rates averaged 4.21% and 3.32%.
