Mortgage Rate and Homebuyer Tax Credit Update
Market Summary: Even though rates have been super low in recent past, based on Lender calculations a 1% increase in mortgage rates could cost the consumer approx 17% more in monthly payment. In addition, there are only 2 weeks left to be under contract to take advantage of the $8000 and $6500 tax credits. If your friends, family or associates are even considering buying or selling, time is running short.
