30 year fixed, conventional with 5% down, closing on July 24.

With lender waiving fees and a few points I pulled a 4.6% this morning, but not all investors were online due to the holiday.

I havent locked, but is there a chance that it will go closer to 5 towards the end of the month?

I am fine with the quote this morning, but I just dont want to lose out on it since it is obviously not THAT great, but works well for my situation.

Is your credit score below 700?

I just priced a 4.25% with no points. 30 yr fixed.

I got 4% with 20% down on a conventional 30 year fixed today. No idea what my credit score is, but I assume it's good considering no debt, never had a balance on the only credit card I have.

I have 750, wife has 804

I am ignorant to most of this process, but there was something with me putting 13k down, that would get me the 4.6 and save me $5200 out of pocket.

If I chose to pay the $5200 extra out of pocket it would drop to around 4.3 and have me putting 15,200 down

Sounds like a lender loan.
4.6% sounds a bit high, but rates are slowly going up.

neither my wife nor I have a credit score above 699. We got a 3.25 two years ago. If you have a good mortgage broker, you can get a good rate with imperfect or really just fair credit.

Interest rates were extremely low 2 years ago. The guy who just got the 3.6 a month ago with 0 down either did a VA or is pretty poor and did the program people making above 60k as a household can't do. Rates are going up and I expect them to reach 6 by years end unless the economy collapses again which is very possible.

Or me and my wife make $100k+ and that's the rate I was locked in for.

Just curious if you signed an ARM because 3.6 is by far the lowest I have heard of in May of this year.

No I didn't sign a ARM and here's a thread to reference others who have gotten close to the same rate and some even under in the past few months LINK /

I'm locked at 4.25 for 30 yr fixed, 760 fico, 5% down

I locked roughly a week ago, thought about holding off and seeing what the Greek mess did with the mbs market and hoping to go lower but decided not to.

Saint tiger- was referring to zero percent town. So if you make 100kplus then had to be VA

Greeks voted no so you should be getting a better rate tomorrow.

you need to get another quote that rate is high even with under 700 credit.


As for the rest of you who like to brag about a rate you got 3 months ago or 3 years ago.. STOP IT !
