2 E% c9 r3 l' f" N7 f0 cThis week we saw a few lenders drop down to prime + 0.15%. Nationwide variable rates haven’t been this low since last fall.

Merix and MCAP were among the lenders cutting rates this week. Each is now offering prime + 0.15%, on 3-year and 32-month terms respectively.4 g1 X5 B2 B& Y; ?
You might ask yourself, “Why would I want a variable term under five years?” 7 K5 _4 W- {2 k4 N1 g
The answer is based on the belief that variable-rate mortgages will once again be offered at discounts to prime. If that occurs in the next 3 years, then a 36-month term lets you reduce your rate quicker than if you were locked into a 5-year term (unless you broke early and paid the penalty, of course).* Q!
