Wasn't quite ready to move a year ago.

Interest rate still lower than what I have now, though.  Didn't refi there at the end because it wouldn't have been worth it since we've been planning a 2014 move now for a couple of years.

thoughts on potential to drop mortgage rates in the near term?  :love:

not likely to drop or rise much near term.


fed exits asset purchases, rates drop like a rock.  people in this thread smarter than the fed = 0.

Refinance now, friends.  Rates are great.

I just locked in a 3.375%  Our house appraised for about $12k over what we expected, so I'm not bringing any money to close.   :gocho:

We wanted to do a 15 or 20 year loan because those rates are even better, but we want to do about $75k of work here in the next five years or so, so we figured we'd work on that and then refi to a shorter loan in 5-10 again if the rates look good.  Otherwise, we'll just pay off early.

Regardless, mortgage term and retirement date are still in line.   :crossfingers:
