no web site.. each compay has differnt rates. not one will have the same. You will have to shop but do not let them pull your credit. I will tell you rates went up yesterday by a half a point. The rates are based on the market . If the market is doing well then rates go up. if the market is crap then rates go down. The feds do not control the mtg rates. the market does.

Sherri, that rate sounds about right for FHA today. The best indicator of mortgage rate movements is the 10 year treasury bond yield - currently around 3.5%. Watch for movements in this figure to see what the mortgage market will do on a daily basis. Be careful about rate quotes you get online and in newspaper ads. As a mortgage broker, I can tell you it is easy to sandbag a quote and then raise the final rate when you%26#039;re at closing. Then you%26#039;re stuck and basically have to pay whatever I throw in front of you. I won%26#039;t work that way, but plenty of mortgage people will so be careful.

If you have to look up rates online, try bankrate.com

Unless you have a fixed-rate mortgage, the current mortgage interest rates are very important to deciding how much you should pay every month%26lt;!--therefore it is always a good idea to keep an eye on what the rates are doing. If interest rates should rise, so will your monthly payments and again, if interest rates were to fall, so would the amount you would have to pay.

Monthly repayments made on your mortgage and the amount that was borrowed, is determined by current mortgage interest rates. Different--%26gt;companies offer different interest rates so it is a good idea to shop around for the best deal before settling on one particular lender.

With a 750 why are you looking at FHA? There is insurance required that you insure your own potential default? I locked a 725 today at 6% USDA, no money down and no mortgage insurance. If you are looking for a good financial site, I would suggest www.bankrate.com. I commend you for wanting to be in charge of your own situation. It is only when you give that control to others, you suffer.
