When was the last time you refinanced your mortgage?

I keep hearing interest rates should be down to 4-5%, but how many are actually getting that? When was the last time you guys refinanced and was it worth it? TIA

I got 4% on a 30 year new construction loan. You should be able to get under 3% with a refi right now.

I refied last summer at 3.7%

It was definitely worth it. I haven't looked since last year, but if rates are now "down" to 4-5% then something has gotten fricked up. Before I refied, I'd had 5% since 2004.

If you can lower your interest rate by more than 1%, then you're crazy not to lock in soon.

you should go take out a mortgage on it then because interest is less than inflation
