5 Year Fixed Rates Falling --Closer to September Levels

As predicted a few weeks ago, 5 year fixed mortgage interest rates have fallen. From a high of 4.39% in mid-October down to 3.99% today, the situation for home buyers is improving. We might not see rates fall much (if any) lower, but look out for a relatively long stretch of continuously low mortgage interest rates. For homeowners looking to take maximize their savings over the course of their mortgage term, a Variable Rate Mortgage may be the solution, as home owners will be able to take advantage of a historically low Prime interest rate for the time being, and then lock before rates go up.
