☆ 4 smart steps to take with your money after the Fed cut interest rates, according to the experts
  + stars: | 2024-09-22 | by ( Holly Johnson | Freelance Writer | Read More | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates in its September meeting. With inflation starting to level off and the Fed cutting interest rates in its September 18 meeting, many experts believe rates have only just started dropping. After all, lower rates help consumers save when they borrow money, but they also translate to lower rates on savings accounts and money market accounts. For example, borrowing money at lower rates can make it easier to purchase a home, finance a car, or start a business. Lower interest rates can also help potential homebuyers buy a pricier home, since less of the mortgage payment they qualify for goes toward interest each month.

☆ What's a mortgage rate buydown? 3 things you need to know to avoid 'lighting money on fire'
  + stars: | 2023-03-05 | by ( Jason Stauffer | Elizabeth Gravier | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +11 min
How does a mortgage rate buydown work? The terms are sometimes used interchangeably, so it's important to understand how your individual mortgage lender is defining the buydown. When you pay for discount or mortgage points, you permanently lower your mortgage's interest rate (as opposed to buydowns which only temporarily lower the rate). So it may make less sense for these types of borrowers to pay for a lower rate. You'll want to pay attention to your mortgage's closing costs because the fees you pay can wipeout the potential savings from securing a lower mortgage rate.
☆ Now may be a great time for buyers to score their dream homes as mortgage rates dip back towards 6% and desperate sellers are willing to accept most offers

More buyers have gotten back into the market as mortgage rates dip from last year's high. But the real estate market was quickly moving against them as mortgage rates skyrocketed over 7%, and home prices were stubbornly high. "We went from sellers controlling everything, to now being more of a neutral, and even almost a buyer's market." Those looking for a new home are in a good place to cash-in on the perks of a buyer's market right now, Shupe said. In negotiating deals for buyers, she said she's asking sellers to pay fees that result in lower mortgage rates for the buyer.
