I'm wondering because of how to determine when to lock in a rate.Do home interest rates change %26quot;every day%26quot; with the stock market?Yes, the interest rate being offered to you for a loan will change daily. They often charge you extra to lock in a rate for an extended period of time. Talk to your lender about when and how to lock in your rate. Also, you should try to get rate quotes from a few different lenders (on the same day to really compare) and ask them to give you a %26quot;good faith estimate%26quot; in writing. Some number on the good faith will vary at closing, but the %26quot;lenders%26quot; fees should not change.Do home interest rates change %26quot;every day%26quot; with the stock market?No. the Federal Reserve sets a rate that they will lend money to the banks at. Then, banks use that rate to determine what their mark-up will be to the people that apply for loans.
It just depends on how much money the banks want to make on the loans. It is tied to the Fed Funds Rate because the less they have to pay to the government, the less the markup should be. Each bank has a different markup.
Eventually, interest rates have to go up because of inflation. But, it's a pickly because if interest rates go up, people with adjustable rate mortgages will be put into foreclosure (unable to afford their new, higher payments).
So, get a fixed rate mortgage if you are looking to buy a home.Do home interest rates change %26quot;every day%26quot; with the stock market?Banks determine their rates not the federal reserve. Common mistake not one you made but people make in general.

You can get a good faith estimate on what your interest rate will be, but by the time escrow closes, the rate may have changed. Never get an adjustable rate mortgage because you'll be paying a different amount in the future than you are now. Just go with a conventional or FHA loan.
