[quote=threadkiller]Who did you go with flu? B of A is saying 3.5% with 1/2 point and $3600 in fees. Sounds about the same that we paid on the original 30 year @ 4.875%, not sure how the 3600 dollars breaks down, getting all the paperwork together now.[/quote]
A broker friend got me the loan. The loan was resold to Wells Fargo a few days after I closed, and it’s also being serviced by Wells Fargo (at lest according to the paper work)….
Originally, I was going to get the loan from aerospace credit union (which has rates even lower now)
Personally, I think you can do better than what B of A is offering in this environment. Maybe try talking to HLS…
My original loan was 30 year @5.5ish…So I ended up getting a 15 year and also having lower payments by about $700/month….I took some friendly advice here, and bought a car LOL….can’t beat them, join them :))
I keep entertaining the thought that if rates on the 30year fall below 4% (like <3.5%), I just might refi back into a 30year and rent the house out and upgrade to something else. I think I'd be able to float the home with about $100-200 positive a month, after all the costs...though my equity would be tied up...then again, it's not like we're seeing great interest rates anyway :(...
I really wish I had a 3 car garage...I really want to have a permanent home/shop where I can work on and leave all my tools/crap, parts, engine, transmission around.
The new Flu...Sporting and encouraging fiscal irresponsibility 🙁
