Locked in 2.75 for 30 last week. Can’t close until September due to the number of refinances going on right now though.
Why? You have shite credit?

Should be closing @3.0 later this week. Total cost should be about 1200 or so.

Closing today on a 15 yr @ 2.5%.

most lenders are running 45+ days on closings on refinances because we are processing triple the volume we are used to.

Ppl with 580s are getting rates of low 3s with FHA
Was just a question. Lenders are closing in under 21 days so not sure why someone with your qualifications would let that happen

Bottom line, what do I need for a Jumbo VA construction loan, that will also fold the land loan in?
Looking at a final of under $1m. Is that doable with about $150k cash at closing (or do I need closer to $200K)? Should I expect to pay at least 3% if we break ground in 7 months?

Before there was even a credit check ran on me the mortgage officer mentioned that they wouldn’t be able to process my refinance until September due to their volume of refinances. I’m not in a hurry, so I was fine with that.

With a VA nothing down. If you’re putting something down, don’t do a VA and waste the VA funding fee.

I got that, but if I don't have 20% for a conventional, then I'm paying PMI - and I have no idea how expensive that's going to be for a Jumbo. If I can bring at least 5% down, then the VA fee is under 2 points. If I could do a full 20%, I might comparison shop for rates/total cost, but if under 20% (I'm likely going to be closer to 11 or 12 percent unless we push it off a year), I'm leaning VA if it is doable.
I'm doing things the hard, hard way - land loan, Construction, Jumbo, VA - but at $200/sq foot to build, what else is there to do?

VA jumbo constuction loan is a unicorn, i don't know of any lender that does them. With that said i don't have any advice on them as i have never closed a VA jumbo construction. I know today my non jumbo VA 30yr rate is 2.375%

21 day closes on a refinance what lender is promising that?

Are you saying your 30 yr VA is 2.375%? That is damn strong if so...

Not a promise from our lender, but I'm closing on Thursday and it will be 22 days from when I locked.

No one is promising but the majors are just delivering especially when they are giving appraisal waivers left and right
Posted on 7/28/20 at 11:12 am to SDVTiger
We closed in 19 days with an appraisal waiver. Never thought it would happen that fast
