Just one week after plummeting to an all-time low, the U.S Mortgage Market Index rebounded, although it still remains well below recent norms.
In the week ended Jan. 6, the index — a gauge of upcoming originations based on average per-user rate locks by OpenClose clients — landed at 99.
That left the MMI 23 percent higher than the previous week, when it sank to the lowest level on record since it was launched in December 2009.
