The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage fell by one-eighth of a percentage point this week according to www.bankrate.com . We haven’t seen long-term rate averages below 5.0 percent for the past two months and with treasury yields strongly trending upward, nothing lower than that is anticipated in the near future. In fact, rates are likely to average a bit higher.
If you have been sitting on the sidelines waiting for a lower rate, time to jump in. Lower rates combined with the federal tax credit of $8000 for first time buyers and lower home values in San Diego make the perfect time for buying your piece of the American dream.
Keep in mind, in order to cash in on the tax credit you must have your purchase approved no later than November 30, 2009.
