I will be purchasing a house in one year. I believe long term mortgage rates are around their low. I am concerned about where those rates will be a year from now. Is there a way I can agree to borrow from a lender and lock in today’s mortgage rates?
I hate to be blunt but everyone in this thread is incorrect.
Yes you can lock in a loan rate for a year, it will likely cost you a point or so (not such a big deal if you expect rates to rise). The longest free lock is usually 45 days. Some shady broker house will charge you to lock rates but large BANKS like mine really aren’t concerned about a few dollars here or there if we can do your entire loan instead. If you have any questions feel free to email me. Otherwise good luck, and I would stop taking advice about the biggest financial decision you will ever make from people who aren’t in the industry.

I’ve been shopping for a low interest rate (30 year fixed). I have excellent credit but it doesn’t seem to help me much when I go into large local banks. It seems like they just run the basic numbers to make sure I qualify for a conforming loan. They then tell me their printed rate on their website. My experience with smaller mortgage companies is that they collect more information and they have quoted lower rates.
Is this typical?
You are best off securing a great mortgage from a Credit Union or a Community Bank.
