Mortgage Interest Rates Going Up

Very low mortgage rates have been instrumental in increasing the purchasing power of millions in the US, Europe and around the world. For one year mortgage rates are on the rise and home prices leveling out.
Foreclosures are becoming more common, especially in the American Midwest, but it is still on a low level. We can now expect a gradual rise in mortgage rates the coming year. The 30-year rates will likely continue to rise in the upcoming months, but should not go past 7% in the US.
In Europe the 5 year interest rate is around 5-6%. So if you plan to get a fixed rate loan, you should act quickly because mortgage rates are predicted to push past 7% in the US over the next few weeks.
