Refinance

MikeyC · 08-26-2010, 02:12 PM

I picked up a rate sheet from a local bank this morning and it lists a 30 year fixed at 4.25%. The rates really are unbelievably low.

I refinanced a couple of months ago and got 3.75% on a 5-1 ARM. Normally, I'd get a 30 year fixed, but there's no way we're staying in our condo more than 5 more years (the period for which the rate will remain at the current rate). So, it makes sense for me to go with an ARM and get the lower rate.
