https://www.wellsfargo.com/mortgage/rates?dm=DMIWFHPRAT 4.75% at wells fargo. Refinance costs are like 1.5% of the loan amount. For my loan at 5.5%->4.75% its showing a payoff in 2.3 years. If the loan drifts to 4.5% it will be 1.8 years. [this calculation does not take into account the savings associated with deducting the points at closing] Last edited by ducati_atx; 12-17-2008 at 04:01 PM.. |

Not worth it, I'm at 5.375% fixed. It would have to go below 4% to be worthwhile.

Would it be worth it to pay a 1% origination fee to drop it from 5.25 to 4.75 or 5.25 to 5 for free?

I called my mortgage broker to see what was locked in (we're about to close) and he aid he knew it was well below 6, which is good. Anything below 6, I'm happy with. the rates change every day, today is just a lower day. Can't complain about something you can't fix yourself.

Damn, figures that I locked in my rate a month ago. But I'm getting such a good deal that I'll have some built in equity immediately. Not to mention I'll be doing a few things that will bump up the value of the house. But since I'm just now buying, I doubt I can refi for quite some time. I'm closing tomorrow at 2pm, so I can't see any rates changing for me.
