How Mortgage Rates Affect Your Monthly Payment
Some Highlights
- Experts say rates will come down slightly in the year ahead – but some volatility is expected. So, you shouldn't try to time the market.
- Instead, it's better to focus on how even a small change impacts your future mortgage payment. As rates come down, even a little bit, your monthly payment on your next home will too.
