Interest Rates

I was just wondering what interest rates people with good credit have been getting in the last month or so for a 30 year fixed (not Jumbo)? We're getting our paperwork together and I want to make sure our rate is as good as we can get.

Does it run your credit? I don't really want to have our credit run again.

Just came back from a mortgage broker. The rate was at 6, maybe a little lower than that like 5.8.

Different lenders offer differnt options though, such as no points or penalty fees for paying early, some require you to put taxes in escorw etc. Do you research I got luck y that cit is charging me no fees at all for the moortgage since they have a deal with my firm. Loook nto and see if your company that you work for has any agreements

I don't work yet (graduate law school soon). I'll ask FH to find out if he has anything w/ work, but I doubt it b/c everyone there (including accountants) know he is buying a home and nobody has mentioned anything. However, the mortgage we got is 5.75 w/ no points, no penalties for paying early and taxes don't need to be in escrow...so I think it is pretty good, no?

Awesome rate for a 30-yr fixed. Definitely lower than what I've seen published the last few weeks. When did you lock?
