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.

    If you want a hard working loan officer Joan Gallardo is the one. Joan worked on our loan day and night plus he was always available whenever we had questions. I learned a lot from him about residential loans in the process. Thanks Joan!

  • Jillian Daniell • November 05, 2015

    Thank you for all your hard work. I really appreciate it! Keep up the great work!

  • Diana Valeski • Jule 12, 2020

    Joan at Clear Lending was patient, dedicated & thorough with our transaction buying a house. We are 1st time home buyers & needed closing costs. Joan did not give up on us, showing us home after home, in so many different areas around Houston, talking to so many agents for us & helping us until we found our home. He even went the extra mile & made it right by us when the sellers left a mess in the house. Joan didn't have to do that, but he did because he genuinely cares about his clients. I'm really glad we went with him & we'll return if/when we choose to upgrade to a bigger home.
