Low Texas mortgage interest rates? High interest
rates? Where will they move next, up or down? Texas Interest
rates can fluctuate many times during each day that
the financial markets are open. Mortgage rates tend
to follow the bond market. When bond prices rise
mortgage rates tend to fall.
Ordinarily, when you contact a
lender and request an interest rate for a particular
program, be it a fixed rate or a variable rate program,
you will be quoted the rate that is available at
that moment. In the event that you do not begin
the loan process by filling out a 1003 Uniform Residential
Loan Application, the loan officer most likely will
not be able to "lock in" the interest
rate for you. A call back to the same lender later
that same day may result in, higher, lower, or perhaps,
the same mortgage interest rate being available--depending
on the volatility of the financial markets on that
day.
Some lenders may charge a fee to
"lock in" a Texas interest rate while others
will lock the rate for free based on your good faith
interest in getting a loan. Typically mortgage lenders
will not lock the rate until you sign a 1003 Uniform
Residential Loan Application.
