This week we saw a few lenders drop down to prime + 0.15%. Nationwide variable rates haven’t been this low since last fall.

You might ask yourself, “Why would I want a variable term under five years?”
1 ]* o; M6 Y$ N6 r! \$ e4 I lThe 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).3 S8 K1 E( G% R* m.
