Mortgage rates are at record lows, but borrowers hoping to take advantage are running into the toughest loan approval standards in years. Over the past month, lenders have put in place higher credit score and down payment requirements, and in some cases stopped issuing certain types of loans altogether.

Already, mortgage refinances are coming in at a much slower... pace than analysts would expect, considering the rock-bottom borrowing rates. JPMorgan Chase & Co. tightened its standards last month, requiring borrowers to have minimum credit scores of 700 and to make down payments of 20% of the home price on most mortgages, including refinances.
