Interest Rates Over Time [INFOGRAPHIC]

Some Highlights:

• With interest rates hovering at near historic lows, now is a great time to look back at where they’ve been, and how much they’ve changed over time.
• According to Freddie Mac, mortgage interest rates are currently hovering near a five-decade low.
• The impact your interest rate has on your monthly mortgage payment is significant. An increase of just $20 dollars in your monthly payment can add up to $240 per year or $7,200 over the life of your loan. Maybe it’s time to lock in now while rates are still low.

Please contact me before you look at new construction, remember the builder’s real estate agent represents the builder’s interest, not your’s. There is no cost for you to have a buyer’s agent represent you in a transaction with a sophisticated seller. In fact, I may be able to help you save money and negotiate for extras which the builder may not let you know about.
