Interest Rates are starting to rise Bond yields have been putting pressure on fixed interest rates for mortgages. As of this morning, they have started to rise anywhere from .1-.2%. For a $300k mortgage, a rise in rate from the current 2.34% to an average rate of 2.49% would be an increase of $22.30 a month in payment. This also means $2109.32 more in interest over the 5 year term. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns. www.christinebuemann.com
