Why homebuying involves 'more than just the rate'
Why homebuying involves 'more than just the rate'
As the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate declines to 6.95%, potential homebuyers may find themselves with a strategic opportunity in the housing market.
Jennifer Beeston, Senior Vice President of Mortgage Lending at Guaranteed Rate, joins the Wealth! program to provide essential guidance for prospective buyers.
Beeston emphasizes the importance of thorough research and comparison when selecting lenders. This diligent approach enables buyers to secure the most cost-effective option, taking into account not only the interest rate but also the related fees. "It is essential to recognize that it's more than just the rate," Beeston states, "it’s important to consider what additional charges may accompany that rate."
Additionally, Beeston highlights a concerning trend she has observed: "My primary concern is that contracts are often sent to buyers without proper explanation, leading them to sign documents without fully understanding them." She advises, "These terms are negotiable, and overlooking these details can have significant financial implications."
