How to find and compare home mortgage loan interest rates...

 

The process of searching for the best interest rates in Houston is in many occasions a complicated full-time work.

Buying a house involves many complex decisions and besides finding the right house, it would be fair to say the most important is the mortgage loan interest rate. Making sure we will not be paying more interest than we would otherwise with a lower interest rate over a 15- or 30-year term is extremely important.

Consider the following hypothetical scenario which in no way is an offer or extension for credit at 2 different possible interest rates assuming $0 closing costs and no mortgage insurance. We offered $325,000 for the perfect house and seller has accepted. Therefore, the following numbers,

Purchase price: $325,000
Down Payment: $16,250 (5%)
Loan Amount: $308,750
Option 1 at 4.875% - Monthly payment: $1,633.93
Option 2 at 4.625% - Monthly payment: $1,587.41

If we were going to close the purchase of such house at the higher interest rate of 4.875% and a payment of $1,633.93, the opportunity cost of not closing at the lower rate of 4.625% would be $34,299.30. Why? Because if we were to choose higher interest rate and thus higher monthly payment if applied to lower rate on a 30-year mortgage, we would accelerate the term of our loan by 21 payments at $1,633.93 would equals the $34,299.30. And any other effort to pay more would equally accelerate faster the repayment of the note.

But finding the best interest rates in Houston not only depends on finding the cheapest bank but also finding the best partnership to complete the home purchase. Clear Lending offers the best interest rates in Houston by setting up Realtor-Loan Officer partnerships where better rates can be obtained than most competitors without the need to waste time searching for dozens of banks and lenders.

Customers Reviews:

  • Roberto & Irene

    I wanted to buy a second home, without having to sell my primary home in Florida. I had originally contracted another mortgage broker to help me secure a loan. I spent so much valuable time with this broker only for her to tell me that I could not obtain any financing unless I sold my house in Florida. I was so frustrated with the original broker that I decided to look online for another mortgage company. I found Clear Lending. OMG talk about professionalism, knowledgeable, and the dedication Joan from Clear Lending, and his staff that in 3 months I had a new home in Texas, without selling my home in Florida. The best part of this that under the Clear Lending umbrella I was able to get my mortgage and Real Estate agent under one roof.

  • Peter Ragsdale

    Thanks Joan and everyone in your team for making my loan possible. I know it has been a difficult and complicated process and I cant thank you enough for being there for me and my family. We will always be thankful for making the impossible possible. I will refere you everyone is in need of a residential mortgage loan. Thanks again.

  • Glenda Alvarez

    Joan I really appreciate all the patience you had with us. You gave us hope after we had a bad experience with our bank making sure our loan was first approved before looking for a house. This really brought our hopes up. You made sure houses we went to see met our expectations. Then no matter how late at night or early in the morning you would answer all our calls. Even when we signed the contract on the house you would still keep in touch with us and made sure everything was good. I will be referring you everyone I know and our next home purchase is going to be with you. Thank you so much Joan.
