is it easy to refinance my mortgage with Bank of America?
Posted by admin | Under Mortgage Refinance Sunday Nov 23, 2008I currently have a 30 year fixed mortgage that I obtained one year ago at 6.00%. I was looking today's rate and a 15 year fixed mortgage is 4.875%. Do you know how easy or hard is to refinance through Bank of America? Average closing costs to refinance? Thank you
My personal experience with BOA was that they are difficult to deal with, tack on a lot of questionable fees that if not disputed, can cost you hundreds more and in general were arrogant. maybe in today's economic climate they may be more accommodating.
When I refinanced 3 years ago, I went to BOA (holder of my mortgage), Wachovia, Wells Fargo and WaMu. The best deal I got was 1% less than BOA nad 3/4% less than the others. Wells Fargo came in lowest at 5.25% APR, quickly and with few junk fees.
Check them out and compare. If you have good credit, good equity and in a viable economic commuinity you are in the driver's seat. Good Luck
I have a mortgage is BofA. The cost were high initially but they will deal. Get quotes from a few banks. As them if they will compete for business. Let each bank know that if they will beat the other deal they will get your business. Make them work for your business, they will. When I did that BofA stepped up and gave me the best deal.
