Rates Dropped in January and Housing Prices Still Rising
/
Rates dropped this month and I encourage all on the fence purchasers and refinancers to lock now! We are currently in the low-mid 4% range for conventional conforming financing and mid-high 4% for high-balance conforming. With property values still steady pulling cash out to pay-off existing debt, renovate and remodel is still a viable option!
