Rates right now are the best I've ever seen them, including the drop in the last couple weeks. 

I just quoted a borrower 4.25% for a 30yr fixed loan - They were paying 1.5 points to get this rate, but that is still the best it's been in decades!!

I know there's a tendency with many borrowers to say "If they're this low now, they may even go lower!". That could be true, but the opposite is more likely - Usually when there is a temporary downturn, a sharp upturn follows soon after.

Get it while it lasts!!

So are three's around the corner? 

I hate that there is so much speculation that rates are going to go down further that keeps buyers on the fence!!

4.25 is a great rate though!  I've got some folks who just might be motivated by that number to Sell and move up! :)

That's gnew reat! If the rates keep dropping I may actually be able to qualify for a refinance.

Nice rate I don't really see how they could go much lower.  Even if they did I don't think it would make much of a difference.
