Trace North Mortgage Options

July 13th, 2008 · Comments · By Matt

Trace North was partnering with First Horizon and appears to have now switched to Wells Fargo in order to offer a special payment plan if you put 10%+ down.

Their incentive is for year 1 the rate is 4%, year 2 it is 5% and year 3, 4 and 5 it’s 6%.

It’s not a free Smart car but it’s better than nothing.

I should probably pick up a Sunday Seattle Times to see what the other specials these days are.

    Same reason as before. The coveted buyers are the people thinking short term. Do they REALLY want to try and sell to people looking 5+ years out? That is a hard sell.

    I got a message from Trace saying the same thing. In the fine print it describes the loan as a 5/1 ARM. After all we've seen in the last couple of years, why would anyone put in for an ARM right now? Those teaser rates look great now, but with a fixed rate you can still lock in something in the low sixes for 30 years.
