Mortgage rates in Wyoming
Average 30-year fixed 6.49% · Updated July 9, 2026 · Freddie Mac (FRED)
Wyoming has no state income tax and low property-tax rates. Below is what buying at Wyoming's median price looks like at today's national average rate, plus the local property tax and assistance that actually change your payment.
What a mortgage costs in Wyoming
The interest rate on a Wyoming mortgage is the same 6.49% national average a lender would quote anywhere — rates are set by the bond market, not by your state. On Wyoming's median $499,000 home with 20% down, the balance comes to $399,200, or about $2,521 a month in principal and interest.
What makes Wyoming different is the cost around the loan. Its 0.55% effective property-tax rate adds roughly $229 a month, and homeowners insurance about $187 more — bringing the all-in estimate to $2,936. Those local costs, not the interest rate, are what set Wyoming apart. Your own price and down payment will move the number — work backward from your income with the home affordability tool.

Down-payment help in Wyoming
You rarely need 20% down. WCDA — Wyoming's housing finance agency — runs the state's main assistance program: The WCDA Home$tart and Amortizing DPA cover down-payment and closing costs. Eligibility usually turns on income limits and a homebuyer-education course.
