Free Mortgage Interest Rates Tool



I started out to write a widget that would keep mortgage interest rates on my website up to date. One thing led to another and I ended up with some neat little tools. If any other webmasters need a tool that will keep up to date mortgage rates for their website I am offering it for free. I designed the interface to be pretty generic so it can fit into other webmasters sites.

There are three basic options.

Option 1

The first option is an image that webmasters can use. The image updates automatically so the mortgage rates update each week without the webmaster having to do anything. We only update the images on our server so if you download the image it will not work.

I put some html around the image to make it look a little cleaner. There is also a link called "Historical Mortgage Rates" which goes to a mortgage rates tool we created. You can see a screen shot of the tool on this page under the title Figure 1. Anyway grab the code and post it on your website and you should be good to go.

Option 2

The second option is a link to the tool we wrote that allows users to look more in depth at mortgages rates. We designed the mortgage rates tool to look generic so it would fit in with most websites.

The user can set a time period and pick which mortgage products to look at. A user can graph the mortgage rates over a time period or create a graph of what the mortgage would be on a 100k house based on mortgage rate. Below is the code for the second option that you can copy and paste into your HTML.



It should look like this on your site Mortgage Interest Rates





Option 3

The third option is similar to the first. The first option has some html around the mortgage rates image. The third option is just the mortgage rates image. We only update the images on our server so if you download the image it will not work.
