Mortgage interest rates rose this week. The good news? The increase was smaller than in the previous two weeks, which saw steady upward momentum. The less-good news? The average hit a round number, which makes it feel like a bigger change than it was. The average rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rose three basis points to 7% the week ending Apr. 24, according to rates provided to NerdWallet by Zillow. A basis point is one one-hundredth of a percentage point.
