Mortgage rates dipped a bit this week, still holding steady around the mid-6% range while demand remains weak in the housing market.

Freddie Mac’s latest Primary Mortgage Market Survey, released Thursday, showed that the average rate on the benchmark 30-year fixed mortgage ticked down to 6.46% this week from 6.49% last week. The average rate on a 30-year loan was 7.23% a year ago.
