Folsom, Calif. – (Sept. 26, 2024) – With first mortgage
interest rates falling, now is a good time for borrowers and sellers to further educate themselves on buying or
selling a home, explains SAFE Credit Union’s longtime mortgage expert.
“In the last few months first mortgage rates have continued to drop downward,” says SAFE Credit
Union Senior Vice President Michael Popp. “With this momentum, those wanting to get off the bench
and explore buying that first home, or applying for a long-awaited home equity loan, would benefit from learning
more about how home purchasing and home equity application processes work.”
