Even a fraction of a percent reduction in interest rates means big savings on a home loan.
This is slack financial policy - it is easy to make sure you always have the best mortgage or home loans interest rates, and therefore pay the least interest. And believe me, over the years, even a fraction of a percent reduction in interest rates means big savings on your home loan! You need to get in the habit of noticing current interest rates. This is especially true if you are currently in the market for a new mortgage or home loan.
Generally, Mortgage interest rates track the central banking system's 'base interest rate', but there are a LARGE number of home loans for new customers, including early year discounts, fixed interest rates, capped rates and so on. If your home loan company isn't offering you a competitive rate, but other mortgage lenders are, confront them with it! Often they rely on your disinterest to keep overcharging you interest on your home loan. When confronted, they usually crumble and will offer you a better deal rather than lose your custom.

Always use the APR when comparing home loans. The APR (Annual Percentage Rate) allows you to compare the loans offered by different Mortgage and home loan lenders in a like for like manner, and shows you the true cost of the loan as a yearly rate. This stops lenders hiding 'extras' (such as upfront fees) behind a fog of low rate home loan claims, and means you have the true interest rate to play with. Generally, most house hunters get an approval in principle from their chosen home loan company.

This makes you more attractive to sellers because it shows you are serious, and have the financial wherewithal to proceed should you decide to try and buy their house.

It will also give you a firm indication that of what your budget is (although most lenders have slackened their rules in recent years, they still apply SOME rules!). This pre-qualification will keep you in the right price bracket too, and stop you wasting time on properties beyond your reach. If you meet the lender's criteria, try to lock in good interest rates for home loans. This means the lender promises to hold their offer for you at a certain interest rate for a certain time while you proceed with the purpose. Variable rate mortgages, more popular in Europe, can be crippling if interest rates rise from the historically low rates prevalent at time of writing.
