7 day Mortgage Interest Rate lock or Float Advice: LOCK Mortgage Points based on 3.5% Mortgage Backed Securities are Up 0.05 point.  After a long run up it may be time for a correction.


30 Day Mortgage Interest Rate Lock or Float Advice: LOCK.

Rates could easily move higher or lower, but given the nearness to all time lows, there's generally more risk than reward regarding floating so my advice is to lock.

Yes, Bill .... foreclosure notices have picked up in our Metro area of Denver, in 3 counties over last year at this same time.  But we predicted that would happen, last December.  With all of the communication with distressed homeowners 5-6 months ago... so many were 4-10 months behind without any notices received.  So, you knew the banks were going to let loose soon.... and they are!!
