What happens if my loan does not close before the rate lock expiration date?
When you lock your interest rate, you are guaranteed to receive that rate as long as you close and fund your loan by the specified expiration date. If your loan closes and funds after this date, you are no longer guaranteed your locked interest rate. Instead, you will receive the higher of the current market rate or your locked rate. Please note that you cannot receive a lower rate by allowing your lock to expire.
