1 h; w6 L" \5 v" H$ cThis week we saw a few lenders drop down to prime + 0.15%. Nationwide variable rates haven’t been this low since last fall.

Merix and MCAP were among the lenders cutting rates this week. Each is now offering prime + 0.15%, on 3-year and 32-month terms respectively.5 I% e- g/ I: y) x0 w; ]6 a
You might ask yourself, “Why would I want a variable term under five years?”
; N6 S0 @* O, [; H& F- R; p2 l1 TThe answer is based on the belief that variable-rate mortgages will once again be offered at discounts to prime. If that occurs in the next 3 years, then a 36-month term lets you reduce your rate quicker than if you were locked into a 5-year term (unless you broke early and paid the penalty, of course)." ^# R5 k( H# C$ \+ _% W1 \
^* a: g6 ?! `" s& y$ W( P& uWhat’s more, these shorter-term variables are priced a little better than 5-year variables (2.40% for a 3-year versus 2.45% to 2.65% for a 5-year). |
