Fed Emergency Rate Cut and Sedona Real Estate
Fed rate cut may help Sedona ARMs
While long-term Sedona mortgage rates will not be impacted in a major way be yesterday’s emergency Fed rate cut, Sedona ARMs probably will be, along with home equity lines of credit. Inman News reports on the effects for the Fed emergency rate cut on some types of loans:
(ARMs) indexed to the prime rate or home-equity lines of credit (HELOC)
loans, "this shows up right away in terms of lower interest rates," as
banks follow suit and lower the prime rate to 6.5 percent. For ARM
borrowers facing interest-rate resets, Nothaft said, that translates
into a smaller increase in payments, and "maybe even a decline."
Not only that, but home mortgage refinancing is going up as well, since lower mortgage rates are making it possible for some Sedona homeowners to refinance out of their ARMs.
