Historical Interest Rate charts
One of our Lenders, Firstline, sends out a monthly update on Interest rates .. click here FLM-Historical- Rate-Sheets-May 2010 . The Charts go back 25 years… some very interesting patterns… Overwhelming data that shows Variable rate or short-term mortgages really do outperform Longer term fixed rate products…
Another benefit is a fixed or reduced mortgage prepayment penalty…. (anyone with a longer term fixed rate could face enormous penalties of 6, 7, 10 or even 12 months worth of interest)…. Variable rate or short mortgages usually have penalties of 3 months interest or less.
