Mortgage Rate Update -- Basically Unchanged

Except for some jockeying around as far as who's going to be the most competitive or who's all full-up with new loan applications, lenders priced their rate sheets with the same rate as the day before -- more or less...

4.625% Rate / 4.773% APR

P&I payment: $2,143.96

Loan amount: $417,000
Down payment/equity: 20%
Loan Program: 30 Year Fixed

Rates are as of 1/7/09. Subject to change without notice. Etc. Etc. Etc.

Thanks for reading! --James Wirth

James,

Countrywide Phoenix had cut way back on staff. Now they're getting 100 new files per day, and can't keep up. To pacifiy the world, they're extending locks for 15 days for free.

Yeah, it's a bit crazy out there. I'm sure we'll see more creative processing to compensate for being short-staff. Thanks for commenting! --James Wirth
