The 5% rate is reasonable depending on how much of a buydown they charged. The actual APR rate would tell me more. First time home buyer doesn't affect rates but it does qualify you for the $8000 tax credit. If conservation of your savings is a goal I can do an FHA purchase deal for you with 3 1/2% down at a note rate of 4.875% and 2 points buydown, (APR 4.97) 3 points will reduce the rate to 4.75%. Call if this makes more sense. 484-331-2436
