Average interest on a 30-year fixed mortgage fell to an all-time low of 4.69 percent this week, down from 4.75 percent a week ago, reports Freddie Mac.
Although rates have held below 5 percent since early May, Michael Fratantoni of the Mortgage Bankers Association notes that demand for purchase loans has fallen in six of the past seven weeks and now is at a 13-year low. Consumers have grown used to low rates, he explains, adding that they balk at buying because they are more concerned about stagnant wages and high unemployment.
This news means very low monthly investments on new homes that are already at very affordable values. Shaw Homes has several new homes ready for move-in with great incentives for those who are in a position to take advantage of these great opportunities for new homes in Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Owasso, Jenks and Bixby. Talk to our Online Sales Counselor for more details.

Customer Designed Home Ready for Viewing - New Homes in Tulsa
Would you like to see the transformation of a Model Home from our design ideas to you the customers ideas? In our Fairway Park location we have recently redesigned and built our FP Monroe floorplan. This home has always been very popular for us, but now we have taken 3 years worth of input from thousands of customers and asked our Glenn Shaw to go back to the drawing board on this home.
He redesigned the home with your comments as the blueprints and has made this top seller one of our most functional Customer Designed Plans. While we have the original FP Monroe model up for sale, and until it has sold, you can walk thru the original and the redesigned version across the street at our Fairway Park location. By the way, ask about our great incentive on the original model home while you are there.

Shaw Homes Wins 2 Awards at 2010 Parade of Homes - New Homes in Tulsa
The 2010 Parade of Homes was a great success for Shaw Homes, as we took home awards for 2nd Place Overall with our Greenville floorplan in Seven Oaks South in Broken Arrow, and 3rd Place overall with our Monterey home in Seven Lakes in Bixby. We are very proud to win not one, but two awards for our new homes in Tulsa.
Glenn Shaw, President of Shaw Homes, when asked about the awards said, “I believe listening to the thoughtful feedback of our customers has been the key element in designing award winning plans. I want to build their home designs, not mine.”
