"Mortgage rates on the LendingTree marketplace have unexpectedly dropped to the record-breaking levels we saw back in November 2010, which marked a historic low," said Doug Lebda, Chairman and CEO of LendingTree. "This aggressive dip in rates coupled with the economic forecasts of rate increases in the coming months signals that now may be the best opportunity to lock-in the lowest rates of 2011. Borrowers should ensure they are shopping around multiple lenders to negotiate the best deal possible given the volatility of the current rate market."
