Mortgage rates down 'Buyers Hurry to Lock in Rate

Mortgage rates down 'Buyers Hurry to Lock in Rate
As mortgage rates move up, buyers are moving in to secure interest rates before they're priced out of the market.
Most lenders offer buyers a loan lock-in period of 30, 45, 60, or 90 days. Lenders then are obligated to offer the home loan at that lock-in rate, even if rates have risen during that time. Some lenders lately have even revived “lock and shop” programs, allowing buyers to lock in an interest rate for an unlimited time before they even find a property to purchase.
