Re: [MBZ] OT - Morgages
Wow, that is pretty good. We just did a refi yesterday at 4.25%, which I though was a good deal. Dropped our payment quite a bit for a shorter term too. --R On 6/24/11 9:10 PM, OK Don wrote: Mean time, my wife went shopping at several local banks, came home approved for a 3.8% loand - I just had to add my signiture to the papers.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Morgages
Wish I could refi, we're stuck at 7.35%. I can't find anywhere that will refi at 170% of value. I'll need to pay off something like $25k more before anybody will even look at it. Currently the principle payback is like $210/mo. I've been adding a little to it but we've got our 10 anniversary vacation coming up so I'm socking away some for that. -Curt Date: Sat, 25 Jun 2011 09:44:38 -0400 From: Rich Thomas richthomas79td...@constructivity.net To: Mercedes Discussion List mercedes@okiebenz.com Subject: Re: [MBZ] OT - Morgages Message-ID: 4e05e646.2070...@constructivity.net Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Wow, that is pretty good.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Morgages
Long ago, I read, particularly in Consumer Reports, how credit unions are a much better deal for their members, etc. I tried to put that into practice. My sad experience is that I always could do better at a bank. That's even before an old friend became president of my bank. I don't know why, but I do know what. 9 and 11. Re: OT - mortgages Message: 9 Date: Sat, 18 Jun 2011 17:11:47 -0500 From: OK Don okd...@gmail.com To: Mercedes Discussion List mercedes@okiebenz.com I'd forgotten them. The last time I went to them for a new car loan (1997) they were more expensive than a local bank, but it's worth checking.

We will save about $1500 on our closing costs due to this. I did shop around for better terms/rates but didn't find any. Another nice thing is their ability to offer non-traditional products, such as a 20 year mortgage. I couldn't find any any local banks that would do a 20 year note - they would only do a 15 or 30 year note.

Re: [MBZ] OT - Morgages
I put an inquiry into the credit union about rates, etc. They still haven't responded (someone will call you -- ). Mean time, my wife went shopping at several local banks, came home approved for a 3.8% loand - I just had to add my signiture to the papers. Fast, pleasant, curtious, nd effecient process (so far).
