LOOKING FOR THE BEST MORTGAGE?, Bellingham Homes For Sale

Record-low interest rates are available for qualifying buyers, and lenders are competing to earn your business. Shopping around for a home loan or mortgage will help you to get the best financing deal. A mortgage — whether it’s a home purchase, a refinancing, or a home equity loan — is a product, just like a car, so the price and terms may be negotiable. You will want to compare all the costs involved in obtaining a mortgage. Shopping, comparing, and negotiating may save you thousands of dollars.

Bellingham Homes - Lowest Mortgage Rates Since 1950s

Home buyers are getting another boost this summer with incredibly affordable financing. The average 30-year fixed-rate loan dropped in June to 4.69 percent, according to Freddie Mac. These rates are the lowest on record for the 30-year loan, and comparable with the shorter 20-year home loans offered in the 1950s.

These low rates offer today's buyer significant purchasing power. Through low interest rates and affordable monthly loan payments, many buyers will realize even greater savings than the $8,000 tax credit offered earlier in the year.
