Should I be satisfied with 4.125% for Conventional 30yr Fixed ?

That is the rate I was quoted from both Chase and Wells Fargo through Pre-approval for a $250,000 loan. FHA rate was 3.75%
My median credit score they used was 800. I know this is a good score, which is why I was expecting a lower rate.
I am considering more shopping around, but wanted some input from others on the 4.125%.

Unless rates have gone up over the last few months, I think you can do better.

Depends on income and how much debt he currently has.

oh ok. I thought that income and debt were used only to decide the total amount that they were comfortable loaning to me. I didn't realize that more than just your credit history determined the interest rate.

You can bet better than that.

Bingo.
I imagine this guy is spreading himself a little too thin and the models are putting him at a higher likelihood of default.
With interest rates as low as they are now, people should just get a 15 year mortgage on the house that they could have afforded a 30 year mortgae on if interest rates were 6.5-7.0% and be happy, IMO.
I think 30 year mortgages are almost always a sign of someone spreading themselves too thin.
