Mortgage rates rose for the third session in a row. The 30 year fixed added 2 basis points to 6.75% and the 15 year added 1 to 6.31%, per Mortgage News Daily. The moves are small, but the direction has been steady all week, and in a market this tight the rate you lock matters more than the rate you read about.

The demand side is just as telling. Another 31 Newark houses and townhomes are already in contract, against 59 you can still buy. A market where roughly one home is in contract for every two on the shelf is still a competitive one.
