D Delphi Registered User Messages 112 9 Aug 2008 #1 I am in the process of getting my first mortgage. My broker is getting me the following deal with First Active: Rate - 5.95 for 5 years fixed - it was lower in June when I originally got loan approval. Is this still good do you think? Thanks in advance!

Sounds more like he's getting himself a good deal, more to the point. Just goes to show you're better off doing it yourself..

I irishlinks Guest 9 Aug 2008 #5 Maybe it's affordable housing? - some lenders don't deal with those mortgages. (The current First Active 5 year rate is 6.24% )
