For home loans, is the 30 year mortgage rate generally the rate to look at for historical data?
Hi, I am doing an econometrics study based on housing prices. One of the variables will be the home loan interest rate. I am looking at the Fed Reserve datasets, but I am not 100% sure which rate to use. I am thinking the 30 year rate is the most common, or should I be looking at something else?

Yes 30 Year mortgage rate is common.People who don't like surprises and those who desire a predictable, fixed deduction from their monthly budget are well-suited for 30-year fixed mortgages. It's also attractive to people who plan to stay in the house for more than 5-7 years and desire a mortgage payment spread out over many years so it's more affordable.
