Refinance now?

Good Evening Community,

 

Looking for some advice. I am thinking about refinancing my house, currently, 4.50% taking advantage of the low rates. My wife and I have been discharged for Chapter 13 bankruptcy as of May 2020. It will be off our report in 6 months. We have been on our rebuild journey with my activity listed below. So it boils down to this do I try now or wait for 6 months? Do I risk rates rising?

 

Here is my back story
