So after the debacle last week, I called up a few mortgage vendors to see what rates are. They are telling me mid 6s for now as the big dip from last week went away in an instant.

Everyone tells me mid to late sept follow up.

We had $100M in locks last Monday and have been averaging close to $40M for quite a while

A .5 cut means they see something very scary coming in my opinion. That was the cut in 2007 when the feds started seeing something breaking.

They have done a .5 cut to start 5 out of 6 cycles since 2001

They are pricing in 1% be end of year which means there has to be a .5 cut

That means its right away or 4 straight .25% cuts

The fact this place thinks there is zero % chance of .5 cut is comical

What's comical is they were pricing in 6-7 cuts this year to start in March and you assume the futures market still has it pegged.

Not even disagreeing with you, but you sure are sure of yourself.

Do you guys think it’s too early to refi? I thought 5.625 was good so set on it. I’d kick myself if it became high 4s in a few months

This doesn’t directly answer your question, but 10y treasuries are already down 1.2% from their cycle high last fall. 2y treasuries are down slightly more. There is a sizable amount of rate cuts baked into those numbers (the 2y is much more sensitive to Fed activity, but the 10y is more aligned with mortgage rates).

If you play the waiting game on refinancing, you’re essentially betting on things getting worse in the economy than anticipated.

I think I provided enough proof here that it’s legit. Don’t let that one poor loser dictate

Just got quoted 5.875 on a 7 year arm....was thinking of pulling the trigger and recouping the value of the cost over the next year and shopping again.

My thoughts as well. I’m assuming it won’t be a quick drop but it did go from low 6 to mid 5 quickly
