White Rhino Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 are you talking conventional, or jumbo rates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 They aren't all that low. I was thinking about it, but the idea of tacking on a few more thousand in fees and eating up more equity doesn't sound good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanddunesaddict Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I'm f*cked I cant do a damn thing but I'm only at 6% and locked so I guess it could be worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Agent Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 We just re-fi'd at 4.3% fixed for 15 years. Our current mortgage was 7% fixed with 23 years left on it. Payment the same, but the house will be paid off almost 9 years sooner, and we'll save about $100 G's. I just want the house paid off for my much younger wife after I die.

randyvw Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 hmmmm. if you bought since about 2002 you probly don't have the 20 percent equity required to refi........... just sayin'. oh, and the fico score better be around 800 too.
