Homeowners or people looking to buy a house have the chance to take advantage of some of the lowest mortgage rates in history.

SEA ISLE CITY - City Council will vote next month on a $24 million budget that will not raise the local tax rate for the third year in a row.
The city is levying $14.2 million of its budget from taxpayers, up about $100,000 from the previous year.
The budget anticipates collecting about $40,000 more in beach-tag sales than last year's budget after visitors and residents paid $1.2 million in 2011.
Sea Isle anticipates a surplus of $1.4 million, or about $300,000 more than in 2011.
The city was the first municipality in Cape May County to introduce its 2012 budget last month. A public hearing is scheduled for March 13.
