    Question What is the rate of interest to purchase a home where you live?

    I know our rates are low here but I'll have to look in tomorrows paper to see just what they are.

    What are they in the area you live in?

    I think interest rates are a national thing, just depending on your credit score.

    from Myfico.com

    credt score interest rate
    720-850 5.8%
    700-719 5.9%
    675-699 6.4%
    620-674 7.6%
    560-619 8.3%
    500-559 8.6%


    ( I knocked of a few # off the end of the interest rates)

    We got our mortgage in Oct. 2001 and got it for 6.75%. I wish we had the money to refinance, but oh well.

    we refinanced last summer at 5.75% for 15 years with not points. According to our paper, 15 year no point loans are at 5.13%.
