Closed today on my 2.875 30 year no points.

A last minute change was made a few days ago. Initial disclosures failed to list the mortgage insurance (put 10% down on our purchase last year). It was too late to add in our final disclosures so the bank had to bite the bullet and pre-pay it.

At the end of the day, I dropped 1% and the bank ended up paying the net total of my closing costs. I’ll buy the drinks tonight. Cheers and good hunting.

I’m hearing a rumor brokers can’t find FHA loans for anyone sub 650. Any brokers here that can confirm lending standards are suddenly tighter based on scores?

I working on a 3.25 for $3200 closing no cash out refi. I missed the super low rates.

Correct. The market for government loans has gone to crap. Investors won’t buy them. Our score was raised yesterday to 660

That's an incredible rate on a 30 year with no points. Well done! Do you mind me asking where you got that rate? We refinanced in January at 3.49 with no points. I'd be interested in doing it again if I could get a rate on a 30 year with no points in the 2.7-2.8 range.

So 30 year jumbo is creeping back up. Here is my dilemma. Found an amazing house at a great deal. Couple going through a divorce. The damn wife of the seller refuses to sign the contract until the court signs an amendment to the divorce decree. She refuses to have the money in escrow. The courts are closed due to the virus so we are stuck in limbo and I can’t lock in the mortgage.

Thank you for confirming. I suspect they don’t want to be stuck loans that might never receive a payment.

2.875!?!? Nice! I closed on my 30 yr at 2.99% no points today. My note just dropped $360 since we built a year ago.

Not sure what you are questioning

And all you stupid fricks stop refinancing to drop your rate .25% from the rate you got last year

You are killing servicers which is killing the industry

Sounds like an annoying problem. The only good news might be if you have to walk away it should be a buyer's market all spring and summer. Rates are low and the number of potential buyers should be lower than normal.

How are the rates looking today? We are currently at 4.875%, bought 2 1/2 years ago. Looking for a 15 year but needs to be sub 3%. Hoping they start falling again.
