What determines my mortgage rate?

Answered by Onias Derilus, Mortgage Capital · NMLS# 1859012 · Florida licensed mortgage broker

Your rate is driven by credit score, down payment (LTV), loan type and term, property type and occupancy, loan amount, and the broader bond market. Stronger credit and more down generally mean a lower rate.

Two borrowers the same day can get different rates based on these factors. We optimize the controllable pieces of your file to earn the best rate available.
