I don’t think they will go down much futher. They are still very good. I would wait untill after christmass they are projected to go down a tiny bit more by then. But that’s it. If you would like a rate quote you can email me @

Well, they stopped dropping well over a year ago and have been slowly and steadily rising ever since.

They’ve stabilized for now. Might drop a tiny bit more if the fed keeps rates the same at the next meeting. I’d lock now, because if the fed raises them again, the rates are going up.
Of course, any rate that’s not locked isn’t real. Period.
