Mortgage rates have been moving up and down within a tight range the past few months partially – the Federal Reserve will be the key to watch in predicting future direction (reducing the printing of money, e.g. Quantitative Easing). Hence, if you’re thinking of buying a property with a mortgage, now may be the time to act. One tip – if you’re going to stay in a property several years it’s worth exploring a 15 year mortgage. Not only will be get about a 1% lower interest rate (exact amount varies daily), you’ll pay far less in interest over the life of the loan. All in all, borrowing money remains a bargain for those who can qualify for a loan.
