What is a 2/1 Buydown?
To combat the recent changes in market interest rates, the 2/1 buydown was released to give buyers some breathing room until the market settles. This option is available on conventional mortgage loans, allowing a buyer to get a fixed-rate loan, starting at 2% lower for the first year and 1% lower for the second year. If the market drops, you can always refinance without prepayment penalties.
