Mortgage rates continue to force down application volume, with Freddie Mac reporting rates moving slightly upward yet again this week, adversely impacting the housing market as demand dwindles.

Housing starts fell further than anticipated in July, as multi-family becomes a bright spot with builders adapting to a growing rental market.
