Re: Fha Streamline refi

It's not rocket science and it's a very simple transaction.  Timing is the key in order to reduce your cash out of pocket to close the loan.  

 

Most every lender offers a slightly higher rate to cover the bank fees and closing costs while you, the borrower bring $ to fund your current escrow account to the table. 

 

Accept a slightly higher rate and you might even profit from the deal by having enough lender credit to pay escrows and title fees.

You may be in the perfect position to take advantage of lower rates. Timing! it's all about timing. You can go back to the lender who funded your loan or your current loan servicer, or there are several really knowlegable and experienced Loan Officers on this forum.

If you apply for the FHA Streamline refi with your current servicer, yes, they'll quote you the new rate. 

 

HOwever, I always encourage borrowers to shop around becuase your current servicer has very little incentive to Payoff and close your current loan in order to originate a new loan that generates less interest profit over the lifespan   Some old schooler's would say this is "keeping them honest."
