When should I lock in the rate on a mortgage ?

I'm building a new house and wondering when it's a good time to lock the rate on the mortgage. If US defaults on tuesday I'm sure it's going to cause a big increase on the interest rate. If not I guess it's business as usual ? We're not closing escrow till October

Any suggestions ?

Interest rates are historically low now. Barring any default, the Fed is expected to raise interest rates in 2012. Probably now is as good of a time as any ...

You should be able to lock in at 4.25 or around that with good credit and 80/20 LTV

Unless you plan on paying for your house by selling treasure bonds for the fed, your rate aint going up cause of the default.

The answer is when it is the lowest you think it will get before you close on your house
