Wilmington Real Estate 4 U Says Now is The Time to Buy Real Estate

Now is a great time to purchase Wilmington NC real estate. But, mortgages rates will soon be rising. Find out why you should be looking now for a new home.

Wilmington, NC, January 20, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Mortgage rates are on the rise, and even the smallest increase in lending rates could have a dramatic effect on how much you are going to wind up paying each and every month. Wilmington Real Estate 4 U are experts in the mortgage lending rate industry because they deal with home buyers everyday.

Mortgage Lending Rates are at their highest since the government shutdown.
Currently set at 4.25% for a 30-year fixed mortgage, rates are significantly up considering that in early June of this year, the rate was just 3.98% (1).

Monthly Mortgage Payments

Consider this scenario: Someone is interested in purchasing a new home priced at $200,000. He has good credit and is planning on putting $50,000 down on the home.

If he had purchased the home in early June, when the lending rate was 3.98%, the monthly mortgage payment would have been $922.73 per month for a 30-year fixed mortgage on $150,000. Over the life of the loan, he will have spent $107,182.01 in interest and the total amount he will have spent for the home would have been $332,182.01.

By comparison, the same property purchased at today's rate of 4.25% would have a monthly mortgage payment of $946.24. The amount of interest paid over the life of the loan would be $115,647.54 and the total amount paid for the home would be $340,347.54. The lending rate increase of just 0.27%, between early June and now, results in you having to pay $8,165.53 more for the same piece of property.
