This rate has a big impact on the interest rates lenders charge. Lower rates usually mean you’ll pay less interest. Keep in mind that mortgage rates can fluctuate daily.

Your credit score People with higher credit scores generally get better interest rates than people with lower credit scores. Many financial professionals recommend you look for ways to improve your credit score before you apply for a mortgage or refinance your home. A better credit score can lead to a lower interest rate and save you money over time. Paying for points Points are a way to “buy” a lower interest rate. One point is equal to 1% of the loan amount. For instance, on a $200,000 mortgage, one point for that mortgage would cost $2,000. Be aware of offers that show a low interest rate but require you pay points. To better understand the total cost of a mortgage offer, look at its Annual Percentage Rate. The term of the mortgage The number of years you have to pay back a mortgage is known as the loan’s “term.” A 30 year mortgage means you have 30 years to pay the loan back. Loan term can affect interest rates. Longer term loans usually have higher interest rates than mortgages with shorter terms. A shorter-term loan might lower your interest rate and save you money over the life of the loan. Type of loan There are many types of loans you might get to buy a home, refinance a home, or get cash from your home equity.Federal Housing Administration (FHA) loans, Veterans Affairs (VA) loans, and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) loans are offered by private lenders and backed by the federal government. Conventional loans are offered by private lenders without government backing. The interest rate you might get can vary by the type of loan. Fixed or adjustable rate When loans have a fixed rate, the amount of money you pay in interest stays the same. When loans have an adjustable rate, the amount of money you pay in interest can change over time. Generally speaking, adjustable rate mortgages have lower initial interest rates than fixed rate mortgages. To learn more, see our article on fixed and adjustable rate mortgages.
