Mortgages
A mortgage rate affects the payment. APR, points and lender fees affect the broader cost. Start with the mortgage guide center.
Short answer: TODAY.you is an independent educational publisher that turns mortgage, savings, CD and borrowing rates into dollar comparisons, decision checks and practical next steps.
A rate means something different in each market. TODAY.you connects each number to the decision it changes.
A mortgage rate affects the payment. APR, points and lender fees affect the broader cost. Start with the mortgage guide center.
APY estimates yearly growth. Fees, balance tiers and access rules can reduce what you keep. See the savings guide center.
A CD can lock a yield for a set term. Penalties and renewal rules affect when you can use the money. Read the CD guide center.
APR joins interest with certain fees. The term and payment schedule determine total repayment. Open the borrowing guide center.
Each page must do more than define a term. It must help with a real choice.
TODAY.you provides education, not individualized financial advice, and commercial payment cannot change an editorial conclusion.
TODAY.you is not a lender or a bank. It is not a fiduciary adviser. A guide cannot replace the provider’s current contract or disclosure.
We do not create fake experts, awards, customer reviews or first-hand testing. “Best” is used only when the criteria and group being compared are clear. The editorial policy explains these rules.
Advertising stays separate from editorial order. No provider can pay to change a guide’s conclusion. Read our commercial safeguards.
Material errors are reviewed against current primary evidence and corrected when that evidence supports a change.
Rate information can change fast. Send a correction with the page URL, the statement at issue and a current primary source when possible.
We review material errors and update the page when the evidence supports a correction. We do not silently change the original meaning.
