Good morning!
When is it best to roll closing costs into a refinance loan?
Keep in mind there are three ways to handle closing costs on a refinance loan…
1) The borrower can pay them out of their pocket at closing.
2) The mortgage company can pay them by charging a higher rate.
3) We can keep the rate low and roll the closing costs into the loan.
Generally…
If you are planning on staying in the home over 4 years – it’s not a bad idea to roll closing costs into the loan.
If you are planning on selling your home within the next 4 years – it’s not a bad idea to let the mortgage company pay your closing costs and going with a bit higher rate.
Have a good day today! …and thanks for reading.
