Re: Refinancing- anyone do it recently
Serendipity,
I am a Mortgage Broker is Hauppauge and the truth is that every situation is different.
When you have no control over something such as (appraisal value) then you must compensate in another way (more options). You have to be creative in this industry and know your way around the mortgage products. I aim to give a borrower at least 2-3 loans scenarios that they can qualify for. Ultimately the borrower will make the decision.
Rates are low and many people are surprised at what they qualify for. Dont sell yourself short!
Have a great day!

We tried to refinance a few months ago, but the appraisal came in over $100,000 less than we paid so unless we wanted to come up with extra $$ to put down, it wasn't happening.
Unfortunately, you don't find out until after you pay for the appraisal.

Yea see I am afraid that will be my problem. Was the appraisal 100K less than what you bought the house for or what you mortgaged?
