The 30-year mortgage and refinance rates have decreased since last Tuesday
All three refinance rates have increased since last week and last month, although the 15-year fixed refinance rate is currently the lowest by a mere percentage point. You'll pay a higher rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage than on a shorter term, like a 15-year fixed loan. In the past, 30-year fixed mortgages have charged higher rates than adjustable-rate mortgage. But right now, 30-year mortgages are more affordable than adjustable mortgages.

Because you're squeezing the same principal into less time, you'll pay more each month than you would with a 30-year loan.It isn't very common to get a 10-year fixed rate on an initial mortgage. But you might refinance into a 10-year mortgage after you've paid down some of your loan.How do 5/1 ARMs work?
