A New Year, A New Home

Are you ready to make some changes in 2018? Your local Lake of the Ozarks mortgage lender is here to help! Whether you need to upgrade your home because you have a new addition to the family or you're ready to downgrade because your children flew the coop, we are here to help with all your Lake of the Ozarks home financing needs!

Mortgage Rates


Last year was a great year for home buying as mortgage rates remained near all-time lows throughout 2017. What's the forecast for 2018 look like? According to The Mortgage Reports, mortgage rates are still low in January 2018, but they won't be for long! Analysts are calling for higher rates this year, partially due to the new tax code which could lead to inflation. However, there's still a great opportunity for those looking to purchase a home at the Lake of the Ozarks in 2018. Freddie Mac, who's been tracking rates for 45 years now, states that mortgage rates have remained below 4% for 23 straight weeks. Now's the time to get started with a pre-approval for a mortgage if you're thinking about buying in 2018!
