Make sure you hit the ground running with a budget. Chances are that this will not be your forever home, so it is important to plan ahead and grow your equity, reduce the interest you pay on the mortgage, tackle high interest debt. I am sure your lender went over all of these things with you, but if not, I'm happy to help. 2254144034 Traci
re: Current Mortgage Rates

They actually postponed the .5 hit on pricing until December. There was such a outpouring of opposition by those of us in the industry and others that they felt it would be counterproductive to do right now. I am hoping they indefinitely postpone, but that is unlikely. When I started in the biz, rates were double digits. They have never been lower than they are now for sure.
A VA Streamline or Interest Rate Reduction Loan (IRRL) is not a scam. It would take diving into your specific numbers to determine if a)lowering your rate only .5 and b)paying a fee (or points) would beneficial to you. You have to look at short term and long term savings vs. how long you are planning on staying in the home, etc. Definitely look at more than just rate if you are considering this.
I am happy to sort out the math if you would like. 225-931-1304 Traci
