Tuesday: Case-Shiller House Prices

Mortgage Rates From Matthew Graham at Mortgage News Daily: Mortgage Rates Moderately Higher to Start The Week
As has been the case many times during the 2022 rate spike, there is a much higher degree of variation between lenders compared to more stable times for rates. The average lender was only moderately higher when it comes to mortgage rate quotes today. Notably, the bond market suggested a bigger jump. The actual jump may have been smaller due to more conservative rate-setting strategies among mortgage lenders on Friday afternoon. [30 year fixed 5.88%]
emphasis added
Tuesday:
• At 9:00 AM ET, S&P/Case-Shiller House Price Index for April. The consensus is for a 21.0% year-over-year increase in the Comp 20 index for April.
