What Are Temporary Buy Downs?

When you work with our preferred lender to purchase this home, the Seller is open to negotiating a Seller Interest Rate Buydown. With this option the Seller can agree to pay mortgage discount points so you, the home buyer, can get a lower interest rate on the mortgage. A lower interest rate means you may be able to achieve your ideal monthly mortgage payment and own your dream home!
