I wouldn't take money out of a Roth, if you have it elsewhere maybe.

I don't like debt either, but taking out $100k from a Roth that would be worth $150k possibly in 5 years in order to save $15k just isn't good math.

Especially as said with mortgage rates still historically low.

But honestly, it sounds like you have a good net worth so I'd do what makes you sleep better.

Maybe because I haven't had a mortgage for a while, I'm not paying close enough attention.

I'm seeing a 30 year at 4.5 and a 15 at 4.25. Is that really that low?

I took out a 15 year in 2002 at 5.25 which seemed really low at the time. Is 4.5 really that low? Sorry, I'm just out of the loop.
