it's the pride and joy and downfall of the american system. you can get variable ones with lower rates but then you take all the long term risk.

30 years locked in is amazing though. imagine going thru the insane interest rates of the 80s but you’d locked in half a decade earlier?

mortgage rates are like max 5 year fixed here. 2.29% for five year fixed, or a whoppin' 1.49% for a 5-year variable

if your credit score and down payment are high enough you can probably get a variable rate mortgage under 1% because at 20% down you don't have to pay any mortgage insurance lol

Idk what my credit score is, i don't think my mortgage provider does either.

Fuzzy Mammal posted:

1.55 variable but it's capped at 2.05, 25years. Gonna refi asap unless rates spike as none of the normal banks would accept our filthy foreign documents so we had to use a specialist (department of the same banks).

When my parents bought the house I grew up in, they were able to take over its existing mortgage, which was locked in at 15% interest. And they considered themselves tremendously lucky to get such a bargain.
