I understand the Ramsey concept but it is more referring to high interest rate loans/credit cards. If I can borrow at less than 5% Ill keep my cash invested in tax free bonds paying 4-5%.Ductape wrote:
Cash should be invested. Never spend cash on a depreciating asset when you can borrow cheaply.

Back on topic......it sounds like 3-4.5% is the median depending on credit which is no problem at all. - BedlamModerator

Agreed, but not everyone is patient enough to save for what they want. Not having any debt is very comforting for me even if I don't have more than my counterparts. The OP is looking for the best lender and rate, we should take this to another thread if others are interested. - AGCExplorerI was going to go with a local credit union but the rate went from 2.99% to 4.99% over the past three months. We're finalizing the deal on a MH and I just don't want to pay the higher rate.
I started doing some research and found Lightstream (a division of Suntrust Bank) and their rate is about 2.99%-4.99% depending on your credit score.
Wondering if anyone here get a loan from them - 09KZMXT266ExplorerJust financed mine at State Farm Federal Credit Union 1.99% for 7 years.

What could you earn on 20k of that money vs paying say 4%? Are you disciplined enough to not spend that 20k if you didn't put it down? So many variables.....I would say 3-5% the norm depending on score and terms. I would not borrow above 5% myself right now. Car loans at less than 2% and house less than 2%....
- face_downExplorerBofA - 4.49% - 180 months.
