Mortgage Market Interest Rates
Interest rates for mortgages can vary significantly from one borrower to the next based on the specific details of the transaction. Some of the main factors that affect the interest rate are credit score, down payment or loan-to-value, the type of mortgage, and how long the interest rate is locked.
The information below depicts average rates on a national level. These rates are not specific to BankSouth Mortgage but are provided to give a general idea of where rates are nationally for different loan types. This information is calculated from actual locked rates with customers across 35% of all mortgage transactions nationwide.

This is not a commitment to lend and does not guarantee the availability of any particular product or interest rate. Rates/terms illustrated in the chart may not be available through BankSouth Mortgage. Rates and information in this chart are powered by OBMMI™ (“Optimal Blue Mortgage Market Indices”). The OBMMI™ methodology takes the average rate of all appropriate interest rates locked through the Optimal Blue, LLC (“Optimal Blue”) product and pricing engine (“PPE”) on a given day. No adjustments to the rates that account for buy-up or buy-down decisions made by individuals are performed.

We closed on a home recently and the process could not have been better through Bank South Mortgage! Our agent, Brian Williams, was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was always available to answer any questions and showed a high level of professionalism and transparency, which really helped as first-time homebuyers. All in all, what could've been a high-stress experience turned out to be a smooth and fast transaction thanks to Brian. I would highly recommend him and the Bank South team when looking for a mortgage lender!

My experience with Brian Williams was great. He is professional, upfront, and knowledgeable. Brian provided me with great advice about my home loan and did not low ball me my loan is within my budget, he provided ideas towards the closing cost for my home purchase, and he was available to speak to within reason.

We were a bit nervous when we started looking for a house because this was our first house buying experience. But we were very lucky, first because we could meet a great realtor, and second because we could meet Brian through the realtor! To begin with, he's a very nice person - you can really tell from his voice and the way he speaks on the phone. Indeed, he's very professional, supportive and responsive. We often emailed him to ask questions, then he always replied quickly, and on top of that, he always called us to make sure to explain it thoroughly and avoid misunderstanding. Importantly, his program is really competitive, and we could have very nice rate. This is also because we believed his advice about the rate predication. Well, the issue is, he is the only lender that we know, so we can't really tell you how better he is compared with other lenders, but we believe he's the best! By any chance, if we plan to buy a new home in the future, Brian will be our first and only choice. We have no hesitation in recommending him for your lender!

We are so grateful that we had him as our mortgage agent. We were first-time home buyers (also from another country) and didn't know almost anything about the process, but he was so patient and helped us a lot with explaining anything whenever we had questions or concerns. He is really experienced, knows situations, and most importantly we really felt that he was lavish with help for us to make us successful home-buyer! Great person to work with!

Mr. Williams was by far the best mortgage loan officer I have ever worked with. His kind demeanour and deep understanding of the loan process along with his creative thinking are all qualities that not many professionals possess
I will always reach out to Mr. Williams for any loan needs in the future and send all my friends his way

Another lender (First Horizon) had my mortgage for more than a month and a half. I received very little communication from them, and when I did reach out, I was simply told, "everything looks good." A week before my closing, they called me to deny my mortgage. I was a few days away from selling my home in Georgia and moving my family to Tennessee, and it was a 30 second phone call to say they can't help me. BankSouth and Brian Williams to the rescue! 8 days later, I was signing the closing papers. They saved our deal, but more importantly, helped my family from being in an incredibly rough spot. I can't thank Brian and BankSouth enough!
