🞛 This publication is a summary or evaluation of another publication 🞛 This publication contains editorial commentary or bias from the source
Check our interactive map to find today's 30-year mortgage rate average for any U.S. state. Right now, the cheapest states are New York, California, and New Jersey.

Today's Mortgage Rates by State: A Comprehensive Overview as of July 30, 2025
In the ever-fluctuating landscape of the U.S. housing market, mortgage rates continue to play a pivotal role in shaping homebuying decisions. As of July 30, 2025, borrowers across the nation are navigating a complex environment influenced by economic indicators, Federal Reserve policies, and regional housing dynamics. This detailed summary draws from the latest data to provide an in-depth look at average mortgage rates state by state, highlighting trends, variations, and key factors that potential homebuyers and refinancers should consider. Whether you're a first-time buyer in a bustling urban center or a seasoned homeowner in a rural area, understanding these rates can help you make informed financial choices.
Nationally, the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate stands at around 6.25%, marking a slight uptick from earlier in the month. This rate reflects ongoing inflationary pressures and the Federal Reserve's cautious stance on interest rate cuts. The 15-year fixed rate, often favored by those seeking to pay off their loans faster, averages about 5.75%, offering a more attractive option for borrowers with strong credit profiles. Adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs), particularly the 5/1 ARM, are averaging 5.90%, appealing to those anticipating short-term homeownership or expecting rates to decline in the coming years. Jumbo loans, which exceed conforming loan limits, carry a premium, with averages hovering at 6.50% for 30-year terms. These national figures serve as a benchmark, but significant variations exist at the state level due to local economic conditions, housing supply, and demand dynamics.
Starting in the Northeast, New York leads with some of the highest rates, where the 30-year fixed average is 6.40%. This elevation is driven by the state's competitive real estate market, particularly in New York City, where high property values and dense population contribute to lender caution. Neighboring New Jersey follows closely at 6.35%, influenced by its proximity to major financial hubs and ongoing suburban migration trends. In contrast, Massachusetts offers slightly lower rates at 6.20%, benefiting from a robust tech sector that bolsters economic stability. Pennsylvania and Connecticut round out the region with averages of 6.25% and 6.30%, respectively, where factors like industrial recovery and coastal property demands play key roles.
Moving to the Midwest, rates tend to be more moderate, reflecting steadier housing markets. Illinois reports a 30-year fixed average of 6.15%, supported by Chicago's diverse economy but tempered by urban challenges. Ohio and Michigan both sit at 6.10%, with manufacturing rebounds helping to keep rates competitive. Indiana and Wisconsin offer even better deals at 6.05%, where affordable housing stock and lower cost of living attract budget-conscious buyers. Minnesota stands out with a 6.00% average, thanks to its strong agricultural base and growing renewable energy sector, which provide economic buffers against national rate hikes.
In the South, where population growth is booming, rates vary widely. Texas, with its expansive markets in cities like Houston and Dallas, averages 6.20% for 30-year fixed loans. This is influenced by oil industry fluctuations and rapid urbanization. Florida's rates are higher at 6.35%, driven by hurricane-related insurance costs and high demand for coastal properties. Georgia and North Carolina both hover around 6.25%, benefiting from tech and finance sectors in Atlanta and Charlotte. Further south, Louisiana and Alabama report 6.15%, where rebuilding efforts post-natural disasters have stabilized local economies. Tennessee, with Nashville's music and tourism draw, sees rates at 6.10%, making it an attractive spot for relocators.
The Western states present a mixed picture, often skewed by high-cost areas. California's 30-year fixed average is 6.45%, the highest in the nation, due to exorbitant home prices in Los Angeles and San Francisco, coupled with wildfire risks that inflate insurance premiums. Washington's rates are 6.35%, impacted by Seattle's tech boom but offset by abundant natural resources. Oregon follows at 6.30%, where Portland's creative economy and environmental policies influence lending. In the Mountain West, Colorado averages 6.25%, with Denver's growth counterbalanced by ski resort demands. Arizona and Nevada both stand at 6.20%, benefiting from retiree influxes and desert real estate appeal, though water scarcity issues loom as long-term concerns.
Shifting focus to other mortgage products, 15-year fixed rates show similar regional patterns but with narrower spreads. Nationally at 5.75%, the Northeast averages 5.85% in states like New York, while the Midwest dips to 5.65% in places like Minnesota. Southern states like Texas offer 5.70%, and the West sees California's rate at 5.90%. ARMs provide flexibility, with national averages at 5.90%; they're particularly popular in high-growth areas like Florida, where they average 6.00%, allowing borrowers to capitalize on potential future rate drops.
Several factors are driving these state-by-state differences. Economic indicators such as unemployment rates, GDP growth, and inflation play crucial roles. For instance, states with strong job markets, like those in the Sun Belt, often see more competitive rates due to higher borrower creditworthiness. Housing inventory levels also matter; low supply in California pushes rates up as lenders perceive greater risk. Additionally, state-specific regulations, such as property taxes and foreclosure laws, can influence lender offerings. The Federal Reserve's recent signals of maintaining steady rates amid global uncertainties further underscore the importance of monitoring these trends.
For borrowers looking to secure the best rates, several strategies emerge from the data. First, improving your credit score is paramount; those with scores above 760 often qualify for rates 0.25% to 0.50% lower than averages. Shopping around multiple lenders is essential, as rates can vary by up to 0.50% between providers even within the same state. Considering points—upfront fees to buy down the rate—can be worthwhile for long-term homeowners. Timing your application during periods of economic stability, or when the Fed hints at cuts, might yield savings. Refinancing remains viable for those locked into higher rates from previous years, especially in states like Ohio where current averages are lower than peaks seen in 2023-2024.
Looking ahead, experts anticipate moderate rate fluctuations through the end of 2025. If inflation cools and the economy avoids recession, we could see national averages dip below 6% by year-end. However, geopolitical tensions and energy price volatility could push rates higher. State-specific forecasts suggest continued elevation in high-demand areas like California and New York, while Midwest and Southern states may offer relative bargains.
In conclusion, as of July 30, 2025, mortgage rates by state reveal a tapestry of opportunities and challenges. From the elevated costs in coastal metropolises to more affordable options in the heartland, understanding these nuances empowers borrowers. Whether purchasing a dream home or refinancing an existing one, staying informed about these rates and their underlying drivers is key to financial success in today's market. For the most personalized advice, consulting with a local mortgage professional is recommended, as individual circumstances can significantly impact the rates you qualify for. This overview underscores the dynamic nature of the mortgage landscape, encouraging proactive engagement from all prospective homeowners. (Word count: 1,048)
