Was quoted 3.5% today for a 30 yr refi. Should I lock this in, or do the money board loan guys think it will drop back to 3.37%. No points

Doesn't mortgage insurance go up when you refi? I know the mortgage rate itself is lower but the insurance is higher, no?

I Love Bama: wtf?
Paul: no mortgage insurance, not an issue.

Just guessing (because we don't know your financed amount), but the difference in monthly payment between the two rates is negligible; maybe 3 bucks? Take a sure thing. IMHO

Also, every month you wait you are eating into whatever you'd save on the rate possibly lowering. I'd pull the trigger.

took a little while, but the economic guys showed up. CoolHand, this was a thought that I have been thinking about this week. It is interesting that an article came out today showing that there is a 14% drop in mortgage applications this week with the rise in interest rates. I wonder how much this has to do with the upcoming Christmas vacations that have already started. Also, I think that I will be saving about $50/month if the interest rate is lower. I'll probablty lock in today or tomorrow.

600k + loan? Then the answer is yes.
Lower financed amount, and the monthly savings is below your $50.

I need to pull the damn trigger on this refi. Where do you guys go with no closing costs?
I'm not sure why, but it's hard to trust non-traditional lenders like the big banks.
Any tips? This s should be its own thread.
