At the same time, lenders may now have had sufficient time to account for these recent developments, meaning that the rates they offer borrowers could already reflect these changes. That means borrowers can shop around with a bit more confidence, knowing that many of the anticipated changes for March have already taken place.<\/p>\n<p>And <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/how-much-can-you-save-by-shopping-for-a-mortgage\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">shopping around<\/a><\/span> is particularly important for homebuyers and owners looking to refinance. This has been shown to save borrowers by offering a rate up to 1 percentage point lower than they&#8217;d receive otherwise. With market changes pronounced, it&#8217;s especially important to do your due diligence when searching for the lowest rate and best term possible. That begins with establishing a baseline to compare against by understanding where today&#8217;s rates stand. So, what are today&#8217;s mortgage interest rates, specifically, as of March 23, 2026? That&#8217;s what we&#8217;ll examine below.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/secure.money.com\/pr\/jf9059fd46b8?s1=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbsnews.com%2Fnews%2Ftodays-mortgage-interest-rates-march-23-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow, sponsored, noopener\">See how low your current mortgage rate offers are here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What are today&#8217;s mortgage interest rates?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The average mortgage interest rate on a 30-year mortgage is 6.37% as of March 23, 2026, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zillow.com\/homeloans\/mortgage-rates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Zillow<\/a>.

With all four options noticeably higher than they were just a few weeks ago, it&#8217;s more important than usual to take the time to research them. Consider speaking with lenders directly, too, who may be able to better outline your options and present you with rates and terms that aren&#8217;t always listed on online marketplaces.<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<p class=\"content__meta--editors\">\n      Edited by<\/p>\n<p>                                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/angelica-leicht\/\" class=\"byline__author__link\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Angelica  Leicht<\/a>\n                      <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n      <!-- tags --><br \/>\n    <\/section>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/todays-mortgage-interest-rates-march-23-2026\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s mortgage interest rates look noticeably different from what they were a few weeks ago.
