Variable-rate mortgages are inching closer and closer to prime.

You might ask yourself, “Why would I want a variable term under five years?”
8 o1 @' X* `% o. `* Y# rThe 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)..

( k: S0 Q- t/ b& D) P3 QWhat’s more, these shorter-term variables are priced a little better than 5-year variables (2.40% for a 3-year versus 2.45% to 2.65% for a 5-year). |
