The lock-up period may last as long as 180 days. In some cases, though, the lock-up period is graduated, meaning that after the initial 180 days you can sell an increasingly larger portion of your shares over the next two years. After the lock-up period ends, you are free to sell all your shares if you wish.
Then you can sit down with your loan officer and review the rate versus-fee alternatives. You will also see that every program offers lock periods of 15, 30, or 45 days and say you have a 45-day escrow. That means you can lock in immediately and ensure your rate so long as you close within that 45-day period. You could wait 15 days and lock for 30 days at a slightly cheaper price, but you take the risk that the good rate you got 15 days before may not be available. Interest rates can change a lot in 15 days.
