| Mortgage Rates Increasing? |

Do you think Mortgage Rates will increase since S&P downgraded the United States credit rating from AAA to AA?
I'm thinking they probably will go up a bit. If it's more expensive for our country to borrow, ultimately it will be more expensive for us as individuals to borrow.

Who knows, but stock is cheaper and gas has gone down big time.

Hey! I just read the news released by Federal Reserves saying that they are promising a low mortgage rate until 2013. I think that was a good news for many people in real estate industry and most especially to homeowners and buyers.

Due the step taken by the federal reserve institution, it seems imminent that mortgage rates will go up and hence it will lower the trend of loan issuance. General public tend to take loan more often and this trend will be affected.

If interest rates do go up, hopefully they will not go up by much. I don't think the current economy and housing market can handle it.

It is not possible to describe any one or two factors which make mortgage rates fluctuate, it is a combination of many direct and indirect economic factors. moreover one of the main factor to increase the mortgage rate is increase in foreclosures on homes.

Wow! $711 a month down to $451 is fantastic! And sounds like you have a great repayment plan too. $451 is a lot less than many people pay in rent a month!

Interesting,
Having been in the real estate industry for years, the problem is not low mortgage rates, it is the overall economic uncertainty killing both the housing market and now, manufacturing. All signals are now indicating we never really got out of recession, so double dip is a kind phrase whereby it should have been stated as a four plus year recession as I see it.
As to morgage rates, they can't get any lower than they are now, but they sure can go higher. With hidden problems now coming out about the big three banks and their mortgage fraud mess, sooner or later these toxic mortgages on their books have to be disclosed. BoA is laying off thousands trying to keep this internal issue hidden for as long as possible. Then the $hit really hits the fan, rates will go up, so now is the time if you need a mortgage as I see it.
Success to all,

Interest rates are low for the moment and it is inevitable to increase over time. It is a fiscal policy for the economy to keep them low for the moment as it is an incentive for business to start up, with the idea that companies can borrow at low rate they will be an increase in start up and create jobs. Interest rate will rise because inflation will rise and they need to be close together otherwise the value of money will fall, the question is when will it rise?

The original post was with regards to interest rates. I understand your situation though coaster. It becomes more and more risky extending your borrowing and therefore regardless of credit scoring if anything was to happen and you could not make the payments back, the bank loses it money hence the loop with regardless to the providers risk lending policy.
