Navy Federal Credit Union. However, they held my previous mortgage so I was able to get an extra 0.7 less than if the mortgage was with another lender.

So, about 3.575% without the existing customer discount? That sounds more in line with market (maybe even a wee bit high), but congrats on what you actually got. That’s incredible.

Did you call NFCU or go to a branch office to refinance? What city? We multiple NFCU branches here in metro Atlanta, GA now.

why are you doing a 30 yr? You should be doing 15 years.

Navy Federal and USAA are brilliant business models. They can legally discriminate in ways most insurance and financial institutions cannot.

You all realize you can get a 2.75-2.875% 30yr whenever you want

Omg but it costs a point!

I locked a 2.75 30 year with Keesler in early March when the rates bottomed out. Down from my 3.75 when I bought in 2013.

I could have also had a 2.25 15 year. No points. Closed a couple weeks ago.

It's either borrower paid or lender paid

If you went with a bank they dont need to disclose their YSP

But you didnt get that rate with no points or fees like you think
