Mortgage interest rates lower this week, tax credit expiring


With rates near an all time low again - and the tax credit about to expire - now is the time to sign that contract on your new home. Time is running out….here is a great breakdown of rates over the last 8 months. We are seeing rates around the 5% range which haven't been here since the Spring.

The basic message is, rates are back to winter/spring levels. Everyone may know the federal first-time buyers tax credit is expiring on November 30th, but they may not be up to date with where rates are. They have been falling the past 2-3 weeks. With the credit expiring and rates low again - buyers have a chance to purchase during this valley we are in.

Many are predicting mortgage interest rates will push up after 1st quarter of next year - if not the 2nd.
