Default Re: Lending rate question

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
I am buying a house 70/25/5 with a 25% HELOC that is >100K. Credit is excellent, income easily supports the purchase, full doc, first is a 15-year fixed. They offered 7.25% fixed "5-year" or prime minus one-half on the HELOC. Is that a decent rate? If so, which one is better?

Thanks.

Both are good rates since you don't have much equity. (LTV>90%)

Once I sell my current house, I'll have about 35% equity in the new home. What rate drop comes with <90% LTV? Is there another threshold below that at <80% or similar?
