The Federal Funds Rate is staying the same at 0 to .25%.
The Fed’s interest rate decision doesn’t directly affect mortgage rates, but today’s rates remain historically low.
Home owners and home buyers can take advantage of today’s low rates by:
- Buying a new home
- Refinancing to get a lower rate or eliminate mortgage insurance
- Financing home renovations
- Funding major expenses (like college tuition)
- Consolidating debt*
