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

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?”
, x' D* K5 i$ UThe 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).
