What it knows that a model doesn't

A model answers from training data. This server reads the source when you ask.

  • The latest Freddie Mac PMMS weekly average 30-year and 15-year fixed rates, with the week date, the change from last week and the rate a year ago.
  • The average in force on any date since 1971, and weekly, monthly or annual history between two dates.
  • Monthly principal and interest for your loan amount at this week's average. These are national averages, not a quote from a lender.

Sources Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey (PMMS) weekly history file (freddiemac.com/pmms), read at call time and used with attribution.

Where does the data come from?
Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey (PMMS) weekly history file (freddiemac.com/pmms), read at call time and used with attribution.
Which apps can use it?
Any MCP client that accepts a remote server URL: Claude.ai and Claude Desktop custom connectors, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code and others. You can also run it locally with npx.
