If it makes anyone feel better when we bought our house we had a very low rate of 7.5%.
Sadly that was a very low rate
Everyone’s loan rate is different, this depends on lots of personal
Is this for primary residence, second home or investment? This will impact your rate
Yeah seems a little high to me then
FWIW - I was offered a loan at 2.875%, but is now at 3.125% due to recent fluctuations.

Rates jumped a bit late last week but have retreated a little since then. Certainly worth getting another quote.
What does appt mean in this context? I'm seeing 3.125 at my credit union and 3.25 at my primary bank for 30 year fixed jumbo (and conventional).
How is your credit score? Many of the lowest rates you see are for really good credit. But I don’t think that is way high

This was the loan rate I got last summer. What you get depends on a lot of factors (the biggest one for me was location, since co-workers in other states were getting better rates at the same time, and my credit score was over 800, so that wasn't a negative factor), but I couldn't go lower without paying points, and I ran the numbers and it wasn't worth the cost. The break even was too far into the future for it to be worth paying the points. If things stay low long enough, I'll probably refinance at a lower rate.
I got approved 2 weeks ago and have 2.875. It was with US bank.
I closed in Dec for primary home at 2.5%. 20% down
I just refinanced my investment property last week at 2.875%
Excellent credit above 800.
My loan officer did tell me last week current rates are 3.125% or higher for investment property.
For primary hoe I think you can get better with good credit and 20% down
Is this without points? I got 2.9% with like $8K in points :(
Rates jumped last week due to bond yields.
However, if you only got one quote, go shopping.
Start with a site like LenderFi.com. The rates I've seen there are competitive.
From a banking profit perspective, if you have good credit, a good old rule of thumb is mortgage rate = 10 year t bill rate +~2%, or 30 year t bill, depends on your mortgage.
