FLASH: Weekly MBA Mortgage Applications Flash May 14, 2026

This quick note highlights the latest weekly interest rate and mortgage application

data from the Mortgage Bankers Association. We track both Purchase and

Refinance applications on a weekly and YoY basis. While Purchase applications

largely capture trends in resale activity, we believe mortgage application activity is

another useful data point to track nearly real-time housing demand fluctuations. See Trevor Allinson, CFA

page 2 for additional detail including ARM and FHA share of applications. tallinson@wolferesearch.com
