Every mortgage company is different and some are more reputable than others. It pays to do a bit of homework before engaging in this important business relationship.

Here are some traits of a reputable one:- They are in-state. Out-of-town lenders may not know the ins and outs of the state that you are purchasing property in.

A local operation will have established relationships with appraisers and title companies in order to make certain that all transactions go smoothly.- They are housed in an actual building rather than being only available through the internet. You want to be able to form relationships and actually see the people that you're paying the monthly payment to and to negotiate in person, should the need arise.- They've been in business for a while and have built a good solid reputation.

Mortgage rates shot up this week with the 30 year rate moving from 4.81 to 4.94. Rates also moved up substantially last week. So now in the last two weeks rates have moved from 4.71 to 4.94. This is highest the 30 year rate has been since November 5th. Although the other mortgage products have moved up in the last two weeks they have not risen as dramatically as the 30 year rate. Below are rates from the weeks from Nov 19, 2009 to Dec 17, 2009 Dec 17, 2009 30-fixed 4.94 15-fixed 4.38 5-ARM 4.37 1-ARM 4.34 Dec 10, 2009 30-fixed 4.81 15-fixed 4.32 5-ARM 4.26 1-ARM 4.24 Dec 03, 2009 30-fixed 4.71 15-fixed 4.27 5-ARM 4.18 1-ARM 4.25 Nov 26, 2009 30-fixed 4.78 15-fixed 4.29 5-ARM 4.18 1-ARM 4.35 Nov 19, 2009 30-fixed 4.83 15-fixed 4.32 5-ARM 4.25 1-ARM 4.35 For the last few months the 30 year rate has always been the obvious choice. Since 30 year rates have risen .23 points in the last two weeks while 15 year rates have only risen .11 points and the 1 year arm has only risen .10 points, now it's becoming less obvious. I would still think 30 year rates is still probably the default choice for most homeowners there are probably rare circumstances where it might make more sense to...more
