Opinions can be fun and interesting, but you have to be smart enough to sort out trash and what might be useful

I have to admit that sometimes I miss the tongue in cheek humor and the BS that passes for amusement. Opinionated? Not hardly. Long on explanation enough to be boring, pedantic about sticking to known facts to the extent that some just can't follow the statement are some of my faults. Been there and done that doesn't mean I am a blow hard; but nailing those who are BS proficient is kinda of fun. At the same time I feel sorry for those who have not enjoyed the experiences and challenges that bring enjoyment.

Ive talked to 3 banks and went to quicken sites, CHAT with agent and BOOM 2 hours later I'm set
no driving, no w-2s, no nothing, not even pants
why not BOA?
My mortage is with BOA currently and I talked to them about refinacing and they want stuff that makes no sense.
yeah BOA is out.
I'm talking with golden oaks and Im gonna get a rate about 2.8
but can you explain how
2.8% rate is actually 3.4% APR?

Thats pretty much what they told me for a 30yr mortage and I dont understand those numbers Originally Posted by johnnyretard
Keeping it simple, people make the mistake asking what the rate is. You need to ask for both rate and APR. The difference in 2.8% and 3.4% apr is high, which simply means you have disclosed fee's that get rolled up into our loan that you are paying for over the length of that loan.

Years ago before the housing crash, people with solid credit could get a no closing fee loan. They were not uncommon.The rate and APR were almost identical. Hundreths of a percent apart. 2.9 rate 2.94 AzpR. Thats what you want.

Today, a good solid loan will have a rate and APR less than .25% from each other.

If thats confusing, dont ask for the rate, ask what their APR is. If your happy, thats most important.

Rate and APR variances above that, too many fee's and add on that are getting buried that your paying back over the length of the loan.

Refinancing to me is not worth, you would be paying more towards interest at the beginning of each loan than towards principle amount. When you re-finance you may get better rate or you may end up paying less per month, but check the amount paid towards interest in first and the amount you will be paying towards interest in the refinance and total it up and you will get to know.

I'm not a fan of refinance.
