(Hint: I as a lender do not pick the property tax rate, I can only pick how honest I am about it)When rates go up a quarter, on top of having lied to someone by a quarter, the natural path of least resistance is to attribute the full ~0.5% difference to rates going up.I typically qualify people 0.25%-0.375% higher than where rates are currently at for their particular scenario, and I show all my qualifying math, so my peeps going into contract right now currently think I'm a wizard because I'm mostly still honoring what I "quoted" or relatively close to it (I actually never "quote" people at the preapproval stage, I only qualify them, because quotes at the preapproval stage don't mean squat, but I get that when someone sees a number with a % next to it in a big spreadsheet with a bunch of math going on, they think it's a "quote").
