Just locked in
5.9% 30yrs fix @ 6.17% APR. I thought this is a good deal b/c I haven't seen any of those I closed has less than 6.5% with a higher APR. You guys seen anything lower?

Nope
The lowest I've seen is 6.5%, and I've only seen that once in the last couple of months. Good for you.

That's a nice loan... I know loan officers that don't have loans like that.
30 fixed for real right? Not 2/28 or any non-sense...

Re: 1 disc & 1 orgination.
Have you tried bankrate.com? 30 fixed in Washington with 0 points ranges from 5.875% to 6.5% depending how much you want to pay in fees. I found a couple listed at 6.0% with the broker fees around 1300.00. I myself try to find 0 points, unless you know for sure you don't plan on moving in the near future to recup the costs.

I think it's good to, Andy...
based on what I've been seeing. I have seen some really strange stuff lately and I experienced three no signs this month! 9k in closing costs, got a hearty WHOA when I whipped out the HUD....a 2 yr arm into a 2 yr arm, losing 25k to get $1,800. in debt paid off, and a refi that went bad. The borrower thought he was closing a loan by himself, re-fi had both parents on as co-borrowers. That one is in talks with an attny....groan.

Thanks everyone
I spoke with a broker (a client of mine) and she said roll it as fast as I can. She said this lender is very agressive in keeping their customer so they can't be beat, even her.
