They can be. National averages are useful benchmarks, but actual quotes vary by lender, borrower profile, loan size, property type, occupancy, points, and local market factors.

How many Massachusetts mortgage quotes should I compare?

Compare at least three quotes on the same day, and review APR, lender fees, points, credits, lock period, and cash-to-close before choosing.
