    Default Closing soon, should I lock in?

    I will be closing on Feb. 29th my lender said rates might be going down, so far they jumped the last 5 days. Should I wait and see what happens next week or should I lock in at 6.125% ? Thanks

    It's a toss up! I have heard that the rate is going to drop as well. Listen to your broker - it's his job and he probably knows best.

    I did take advice from my broker. I was told they would probably go down and then the went up .5%. That's why I am looking elswhere.

    My guess would be they are going to go down, but who knows? Your broker should have a good grasp of the market, but no one really knows. It is a gamble either way.
