I have a similar situation to this caller and could use help with a decision... Balance: $133,150 Interest Rate: 4.375% Original Term: 30 years Current PMI per month: $153.80 Can refinance down to a 15-year 2.625% (1.750% savings) However, total closing costs look like $9,250 ($4320 loan costs + $4930 escrow/prepaids/etc) The total closing costs has me a bit hesitant on if it's worth it, but I *HATE* paying ~$150 in PMI each month.

don't buy any points. Do a no point loan. Then your closing costs will be lower. The points usually take about 4 years to break even, but the average mortgage only lasts 3-4 years before the owner refinances, moves, or pays off the loan and so the bank makes money, not you.

@MJ-cf9nl4 жыл бұрын
Because you will be reducing your rates by 1.25 I would say do it. It will save you $2425 per year on your 194K balance. So depending on how much your closing cost will be, if your closing cost is 5K then it will take you only 2 years to recover that and then it is all extra cash in your pocket after that instead of the lender's pocket. This is a good deal if you can lower your rate by 1.25, usually just lowering by 1 point is a good enough deal to refinance.

Yes do that and today if you can because you are lowering your rate by 1.5, this will save you $4230 per year and it will take you less than a year and half to make it up (recover your 6k closing cost).

Count the whole 5 yrs of payments and whatever that number is basically you can kiss all that money goodbye if you refinance. Because the beginning to the middle of the loan is where you pay the majority of the interest. When you get towards the middle to the end of the loan the majority goes to principal. Check out an amortization chart
@ChicagoTRS4 жыл бұрын
So many people seem afraid of refinance fees. IF you can drop your interest rate by a percent or more and plan to stay in the house for more than two years most times you will recoup the refinance fees in interest savings in less than two years. For many it is well worth refinancing...and not just throwing extra at your 30 yr loan. Look up 15 yr loan rates, how much will you drop your interest rate? If it is one percent or more drop do the math you should probably refinance.

I am just not following the math here, to be exact, on time stamp 1:05, how you came up with the $1,670 saving for every 1% of interest savings, knowing that the closing cost for the refinance is $2,900 as per the caller at time stamp 0:57 ?
@daniellestephen13634 жыл бұрын
Samuel Andraws He went off of the caller’s outstanding mortgage balance to come up with $1670. $1,670 is 1% of the caller’s outstanding mortgage (167K). It’s a rule of thumb that you save 1% on interest for every point your interest rate is lowered. The closing cost had nothing to do with that calculation.

I listened to your reasoning and it has the flaw that one can invest the difference in mortgage choices differently. It makes more sense to invest that cost savings of say $100 per month into an ETF such as PFF to capture the dividend rather than going with a 10-year mortgage to save on the monthly payment. Investing at 6% is better than saving an added half percent in rate. I would stay with the 30-year mortgage and just do a refi. Rates today are under 3%. And likely to go under 2.5% by year;s end. That is my opinion.

Sure, don't refinance into the same interest rate just to get a shorter term - in that case pay more. But if you can get a better rate, assuming the cost of the refi doesn't outweigh it, then you can do better when you make that higher payment under the lower interest rate.
