Attached is as current an interest rate update as I can provide today. Rates and policies both are very fluid!
The best 5 year rate is now around 4.34% meaning someone can pay just $434 for a $100,000 mortgage over 35 years. Let's look at it another way.
Assume you know someone who is paying $1200 a month for rent right now. If we assume $2000 a year for property taxes and $55 a month for heat estimate for qualifying purposes only, that $1200 a month could be carrying a mortgage in the amount of $226,000.
If your job is secure - if you live and work in a stable community - this is a very affordable time to be obtaining debt.
It could also be a very attractive time to consider refinancing or renewing early - we are developing a simple five minute mortgage check-up to answer the question - is it the right move for me now?
