This thread just had me decide to look into refinancing my mortgage... Gonna try and move from a 30yr (28 yrs left) to a 15 year.

Yes. House paid off in the last year. Just ongoing normal credit card purchases (definitely planned and under control).

I did this about 2.5 years ago (15 year to 15 year - previously at 4.25 %).
2.875 % on a 15 year, no points and paid only $995 in closing costs.

I am looking at moving from a 4.25% to a 2.9% with 1300 in closing cost. Feel pretty good about it.
I realized I had only paid down 4k of principal in almost 2 years... Felt shitty.

Assuming your mortgage originated 2 years ago, I would assume you are in the 3.3-3.5 range on a 30 year. Can you beat that on a 15 year now?

Unfortunately when I started my search it was at 3.5 and moved up to 4.25 by the time I locked in my rate.
Still was happy but now I can get under 3% with a 15 year.

student loans and mortgage....
building another house soon, so that mortgage debt is about to be 2x larger...
around 2019, we will have paid off our highest interest loans which will put about $700 more of expendable income in our budget... we plan on putting that back into more school loans, paying those off quickly, then using that money to pay a lot more on the house... so in about 15-18 years we'll be very close to being debt free...

I remember when I first graduated from college, had a great paying job, and virtually zero bills/debt. It was glorious! Worked offshore and stayed at my parents/gf's house when I was home.

I have a 30 year at 3.375, just checked mine, I have paid down $10k in 2 years, not terrible.

The extra 0.875% is pretty significant...
Mine has really only been 1.5 years or so but still wont be more than 6k at this rate paid off by July.

Some on the Money Talk board will say to keep your 30 year loan. I like the feeling of knowing that I will have my house paid off by the time my girls are in high school.

Check out the lenders on Zillow.

I went through lending tree an hour ago.. It was crazy. Had about 10 people call me almost instantly...
I know, but you can get better rates with 15 year and I can afford either. So I mean, it makes sense to me...

or regret the fact that you've probably not managed your finances properly, if you have absolutely no debt. but no debt is better than crappy debt.
