A sign for a new house is posted in Palo Alto, Calif., Tuesday, May 15, 2007. Rates on 30-year mortgages, after rising for five straight weeks, edged down slightly this week as investors digested news that suggested the economic drag from housing could last longer than expected. Mortgage giant Freddie Mac reported Thursday, June 21, 2007 that 30-year, fixed-rate mortgages averaged 6.69 percent this week. That was down from 6.74 percent last week, when rates had jumped to the highest level in 11 month
