90ish day close - lock in 3.125% rate now (Lender A), or float for 30 days in hopes of maintaining 3.00% rate (Lender B)?

Chase is offering me a 3.125% rate, 0 points with a 90 day lock. Meanwhile, CrossCountry Mortgage is offering me 3.00%, 0 points, but only a 60 day lock (they told me a 90 day lock can be given on a case by case basis, but it requires submitting the application) (their fees are also a little lower).

I’ve shopped around a bit and these are the best rates I’m seeing for myself at 30 year jumbo. Is it wise to lock in the 3.125% rate now in the event that rates go up in the next 30 days, especially given that we have an election? Or do you believe this isn’t a huge concern and it’s better to go with the lender offering a better rate now?

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
