FAQs
Q: How long can I lock in a rate?
A: You can lock for 60, 90, 120, 180, 270 or 360 days.
Q: Is there a cost to the Lock and Shop program?
A: There is no cost for the 60 or 90 day lock. For the 120, 180, 270 or 360-day lock, there is a .5% deposit that is collected at time of lock. This deposit is 100% refunded at closing.
Q: How does the lock work?
A: Your rate is locked in advance for the team you select when you apply with us. Your locked rate protects you from rising interest rates while you shop and select your new home. If rates rise above your locked rate, then you received your locked rate at closing. However, if rates stay the same or go down, you can exercise your float down within 60 days of closing to current market rates. There is no cost to the float down and your receive best available rate.
