Lower Your Mortgage Payment for the First 1–3 Years
A temporary rate buydown is a financing strategy that reduces your interest rate for the first few years of your loan — giving you lower monthly payments when you need them most. It’s a great way to ease into homeownership or free up cash during the early years of your mortgage.
🏠 Buyers:
Lower payments upfront can make your home more affordable and help with moving costs, furnishing, or saving.
🏡 Sellers & Builders:
Use a buydown as an incentive to attract more offers — without reducing your sales price.
Important: You still must qualify at the full (note) rate, and the buydown cost is typically paid by the seller, builder, lender, or even the buyer’s agent in some cases.
Whether you're buying or selling, a temporary rate buydown could give you a real advantage in today’s market.
