Probably the original rate you were quoted wasn't what you would get anyway. And in the scheme of things, rates are rock bottom. You will be crowing to your friends about your rate in a few years when interest rates hit 10%. Lock in what you can get now and forget about it. Don't worry about what you can't control.
