Mortgage Rate Cap Programs
I have a question. My mortgage company is offering me a protection
program. They will lock my rate to go no higher than .75% than what it is now (5.75%), so if the rates go down, I get the lower rate, but if the rates go higher, I would have to pay no more than 6.50%. This would lock me for 9 months (I need 7 months). The mortgage company is charging me 1% of my loan, so this is over $2,000 for me. Is this a good idea to do? I'm thinking it is a lot like insurance, where it is better safe than sorry, but $2,000+ is a lot of money if the rates don't move higher.... Any advice would be appreciated. |
