Mortgage rates for 30-year loans declined for a fourth day following a turbulent month of ups and downs. Rates fell for many other loan types as well.

Mortgage rates ended last week at the lowest levels since April 7th.  The average lender remained at those same levels at the start of business today, but many lenders offered modest improvements as the day progressed.

By any standard, Shant Banosian’s success in the mortgage business over the last 18 years has been remarkable. He’s not just the top loan originator in Greater Boston. He’s finished in the trade magazine Scotsman Guide ’s top five best loan originators in the country for the last 10 years, most often in the number 1 spot.
