Market Rate Update - May 26, 2009

Market Heating Up!
Interest rates have basically stayed the same this week. There is a little bit of movement in the variable rates as some lenders have decreased. The 5 year bond rate is up…..this could put pressure on the 5 year rate to increase. Interest rates should continue to be low for a long period of time yet but we may be seeing the bottom of the five year rate. Locking in may be a good idea for some but each borrower should have a look at their existing rate and what the lock in rate would be. Is it worth having your payments go up?
