After 2 weeks, we see mortgage lenders moving to their prime rate, which will decrease your payments on your lines of credit, student loans, and your variable/adjustable rate mortgages.
Please keep in mind that this reduction is by .15%, and may or may not take effect immediately. Each bank has different ways of deciding how and when they’ll lower their rates. The best way to find out is to ask a qualified mortgage professional, or contact your bank for clarification.
