Get answers to frequently asked questions about mortgage rates.
When shopping around for mortgage rates, consider not only the interest rate, but also the other terms of the loan, like annual percentage rates (APRs), fees and closing costs. Comparing loan details from multiple lenders will help you determine the best deal for your situation.
Mortgage rates change often and can be unpredictable. You may want to consider locking your mortgage rate if:
- Rates are rising: If rates are trending upward for several weeks or months, locking your rate will ensure it doesn’t rise further than the rate you qualified for.
- The Federal Reserve is meeting: A Federal Reserve meeting could mean an increase in rates. You may want to consider locking your rate before that meeting occurs in case of a potential rate increase.
- You want financial certainty: A locked rate will ensure you don’t encounter unexpected changes to your estimated monthly mortgage payment.
- Your closing date is set: Locking your rate is a smart move if your closing date is set and you don’t anticipate any delays.
The exact lock period may vary, but typically you can lock in a mortgage rate for 30 to 60 days. If the rate lock expires, you’re no longer guaranteed the locked-in rate unless the lender agrees to extend it. It’s possible for your initial rate lock to be voided if things like your credit score, loan amount, debt-to-income ratio or appraisal value change during the lock period.
Depending on your credit qualifications and if you’re willing to get quotes from multiple lenders, you may be able to negotiate for a lower mortgage rate. Buying mortgage points is another way to get a lower rate if your lender provides this option. You may be able to pay a percentage of the interest up front to lower your interest rate and monthly payment. A mortgage point is equal to about 1% of your total loan amount, so on a $250,000 loan, one point would cost you about $2,500.
Lenders set the interest rates for their own loan products based on influence from the Federal Reserve, the economy and consumer demand. If the Federal Reserve raises or lowers the short-term rates to guide the economy, lenders may adjust their mortgage rates as well. Individual circumstances like credit score, down payment and income, as well as varying levels of risk and operational expenses for lenders, can also affect mortgage rates.
Mortgage rates can fluctuate daily. There are several factors that can influence interest rates, like inflation, the bond market and the overall housing market.
