No...not you're man-whore fee.

You're mortgage!

I'm hoping for 4.75!

<closing and 1pt recouped in 10 months>
 
Ummm... I wish I had the credit for that kind of rate. I have a 6.50.

Well, they still have to finish my paperwork but things appear ok...for now.

That's awesome Gary! I don't know what your monthly mortgage payment is but .50 or a full point is a big savings.


I'm actually rolling the 1st and HEL into one.

In the long run I think I lose 10K(If I let it go to term)...but I wind up shelling out 2/3rds of what I'm paying now.
I can live with that...and pay it down early when(no if) things pick up.

It's all about cutting where I can - except cigars mind you! ;)
 
I got a flat 5.00% last Oct... I'm not sure if I could get any better now that the housing market went Kaput... ???
 
I'm at 6.625 from buying about 7 yrs ago. I've considered refinancing. I didn't realize they had gone so low.
 
I am actually looking as we speak at selling my town home and buying a single family. I was quoted 5.00 today on a 30yr fixed. i was hoping for lower as i heard they would be in the 4s. I have damn good credit so I am wondering the same thing. Should I be able to get lower?

I was told if I pay a point(1% of loan) then they will take .25 off the interest rate.

I have heard of paying a loan down before. I guess you have to figure would the 1% up front offset over the live of the loan in savings. What is killing my is these closing costs they showed me. I dont remember it being this bad last time as far as closing costs.
