Variable-rate mortgages are inching closer and closer to prime.# t. _2 f' w9 w7 z& a! Q) ?

This 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.# i8 o$ v$ @; a8 W% t4 T y: ~
You might ask yourself, “Why would I want a variable term under five years?”
% ?3 {& C( `8 }: t c8 eThe 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).* q, Z- h8 a1 D0 W
% B, j0 O/ n. J1 r! m X8 v7 O; G* I' cWhat’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). |
