🔍 What’s a Good Interest Rate Right Now? (2025 Mortgage Market Insights)

If you’ve been asking, “What’s a good interest rate right now?” — you’re not alone. Whether you’re buying your first home, refinancing, or exploring investment properties, understanding mortgage rates in real-time can save you thousands over the life of your loan.

At Medallion Mortgage, we specialize in helping Texans—especially buyers in Houston, Katy, and Fulshear—navigate today’s rates with clarity and confidence.


📊 What Is a “Good” Mortgage Rate in 2025?

As of May 2025, a “good” interest rate depends on your loan type, credit profile, and financing goals. Here's a quick breakdown:

Loan Type

Good Rate Range (May 2025)

Conventional 30-Year Fixed

6.75% – 7.25%

FHA Loans

6.50% – 7.00%

VA Loans

6.35% – 6.85%

Jumbo Loans

7.00% – 7.50%

DSCR / Non-QM

7.50% – 9.00%

(Note: These are averages and vary by borrower profile. Always get a personalized quote.)


🧠 Factors That Impact Your Interest Rate

  1. Credit Score – Higher credit = lower rate. Aim for 740+.

  2. Loan Type – FHA/VA may offer lower rates for lower down payments.

  3. Down Payment – The more you put down, the better the rate.

  4. Loan Term – 15-year loans often come with lower interest than 30-year terms.

  5. Property Type – Owner-occupied homes typically qualify for better rates than investment properties.


🧾 Why You Should Shop Around

Many homebuyers make the mistake of stopping at the first quote. At Medallion Mortgage, we shop multiple lenders to ensure you’re getting the best deal available—not just the first offer.

We compare interest rates, fees, and closing costs to help you make the most informed decision possible.


🔁 Should I Wait for Rates to Drop?

Waiting can be risky. If you’re financially ready, it often makes more sense to buy now and refinance later if rates fall. Locking in a good deal today can protect you from future home price increases.


💬 Final Thoughts

“What’s a good interest rate right now?” is more than just a number—it’s about your goals, timeline, and how smart you are with the options available.
