Mortgage Rates Have Risen from their pandemic-era lows.

That means getting the best rate possible is more important than ever. Even a slight difference can save you tens of thousands over the life of your loan. 💰

We’ve pulled together our top 8️⃣ strategies to help you secure a rock-solid rate. Here are a few:

📈 Raise your credit score. Paying down debt and limiting credit applications can help.

❌ Don’t job-hop. Mortgage lenders prefer to see two years of steady paychecks.

💰 Increase your down payment. Some lenders offer lower rates with more upfront.

🛒 Shop around for the best rates. It’s always a good idea to get quotes from multiple lenders – and we’re happy to share our recommendations.
