Mortgage rates fell this week as investors convinced themselves that the Federal Reserve might cut short-term interest rates when it meets in December.

The average rate on the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage fell 15 basis points to 6.08% APR in the week ending Nov. 26, according to rates provided to NerdWallet by Zillow. A basis point is one one-hundredth of a percentage point.
