TL;DR

Mortgage demand from homebuyers decreased slightly after four weeks of gains, despite a small drop in mortgage rates to their lowest since April. Refinance applications increased modestly, especially for FHA and VA loans, while purchase applications declined by 3%, mainly due to affordability issues amid higher home prices. Overall, mortgage activity remains subdued, with upcoming economic reports likely to influence rates further.
