This week we saw a few lenders drop down to prime + 0.15%. Nationwide variable rates haven’t been this low since last fall.

Merix and MCAP were among the lenders cutting rates this week. Each is now offering prime + 0.15%, on 3-year and 32-month terms respectively.5 C4 A! F- ?+ h
You might ask yourself, “Why would I want a variable term under five years?” . O. c% D& F: L3 R# C1 q) ?( R: z
The answer is based on the belief that variable-rate mortgages will once again be offered at discounts to prime. If that occurs in the next 3 years, then a 36-month term lets you reduce your rate quicker than if you were locked into a 5-year term (unless you broke early and paid the penalty, of course).
