Many homeowners today bought or refinanced their homes during the pandemic when mortgage rates were at a historic low. While today’s rates have increased a bit over last year, you have to remember that mortgage rates aren’t the only thing to consider when making a move. Any lender will tell you it’s important to marry the house and date the rate! Your mortgage rate is important, but there are plenty of reasons you may still need or want to move.
