Michael - there are banks that offer six month locks. You should educate yourself before putting someone down for asking a simple question. Stick to selling houses and let the professionals answer the financing question's.

Srindhar, there are MANY lenders, in fact, technically, any FNMA or Freddie lender has the ability to offer a 6 month lock, and almost all have it available on their daily rate sheets.  I just looked at a top 5 lender's rate sheet, a 6 month lock costs 1.25% non-refundable, and a ONE YEAR lock costs 2.375%. Your question, and a long term lock, are decidedly not insane questions. Hope that helps you! Jim

you already know lenders? You should as an agent. and they already told you no, right? If you find a six month lock I'll be impressed and shocked.
