Mortgage applications decreased 3.3% from one week earlier, but purchase activity momentum persisted with home sales remaining a bright spot in the economic recovery, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.

As more borrowers exit their plans, fewer than 4 million loans sit in forbearance, according to Black Knight.

Ginnie Mae helped to fund more than $70 billion in loans aimed at helping low- and moderate-income borrowers in July.

The company reported nearly $23 million in losses for the second quarter, but that was an improvement on a quarter-to-quarter basis.

The company, which launched last fall, announced a partnership with an organization that aids military families.

Mortgage applications decreased 0.8% from one week earlier as the latest spread of COVID-19 weighed on the minds of consumers looking to buy or refinance, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.

Mortgage applications increased 4.1% from one week earlier as consumers continued to pursue both purchases and refinancings even as conforming rates rose from their record lows, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.

Strong growth in refinance volume following several weeks of so-so activity drove a 5.1% week-to-week increase in mortgage applications, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.

The amount far surpassed that of any other servicer required to purchase Ginnie Mae-backed loans that were 90 days past due.

For the first time in three weeks, mortgage application volume increased, this time by 2.2%, as purchase activity was up in a holiday-shortened week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.
