Interest Rates

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
It is my guess that the CDS market will have a greater effect on free market interest rates than any other factor.

Those are true jumbo rates. Wells doesn't ask for the county, just puts the disclaimer about maybe having lower rates under $729K:

Wells Fargo mortgage rate has always been high. I remember getting a quote from them years ago and was so shocked.

True. I often quoted them but never borrowed. I think their more conservative lending practices have kept them out of trouble Wamu/Wachovia kind of trouble.
 
I was told that WFC had avoided the fate of WM, DSL and WB because their premier product over the last 5 years or so was a 10/20 ARM. Apparently most of the loans they wrote will not change to a ARM for another 5-7 years. Thus few of their mortgages have gone belly up and probably will never become a problem to them.
