Experts suggest that it may be a best time to look at 15 year mortgage model right now.


The low rates have been engineered as a stimulus to the economy by the Federal Reserve. The Fed announced Wednesday it would hold steady on the rock-bottom rates by continuing its "quantitative easing" program of buying $85 billion of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities each month.
Freddie Mac asks lenders each Monday through Wednesday about the terms they are offering to borrowers with down payments of 20% or more, solid credit scores and the capacity to repay their debts.
The borrowers in the latest survey would have paid an average of 0.7% of the loan amount in fees and points to the lender.
