Attention Palatine first time buyers, mortgage interest rates are at an all time low. As I write this post today, December 23rd 2011 the 30 year fixed mortgage rate hovers under 4%. Believe me when I tell you that is a very low interest rate. No doubt it will go up and down a little but it is predicted to stay low for a while.
Now I am not one of those agents that say you must buy, you must, you should, buy now, you know all that hipe. What I am saying is if you are considering buying your first Palatine home in 2012, you are being blessed with the lowest home prices we have seen in a very long time and the lowest mortgage interest rates we have seen in a very long time. Add those two to the great choice in homes for sale in Palatine and you cannot go wrong. Here are a few to tempt you. Take a peak and then read on about where to begin.
