What is a good mortgage interest rate?

The best mortgage rate for you will depend on your financial situation. A home loan with a shorter term may have a lower interest rate but a higher monthly payment, while a home loan with an adjustable interest rate may have a lower interest rate at first but then change annually after a set period of time. For example, a 7-year ARM (adjustable-rate mortgage) has a set rate for the initial 7 years then adjusts annually for the remaining life of the loan (loan term), while a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has a rate that stays the same over the loan term.

How to get the best mortgage rate

Mortgage rates change daily and can vary widely depending on a variety of factors, including the borrower's personal situation. The difference in mortgage rates can mean spending tens of thousands of dollars more (or less) in interest over the life of the loan.

1
