Mortgage Rates at All Time Lows

It's interesting that you don't really hear this, but mortgage interest rates are at all time lows right now. Let me repeat that--all time lows. You would think that would be a big story. Right now, my mortgage partner, Michael Caputo from Bank of America, is quoting 4.75% 30-year fixed mortgages and 4.5% 30-year fixed mortgages for FHA loans. FHA requires on 3.5% down, so think about that for a moment: 3.5% down, 30-year fixed loan, all time low interest rate. That should be attractive to most people. And by the way, you can do a 5-year loan at 3.5%. Rates are just absurdly low.
