i would not wait too long wherever you decide to go rates had an unexpected drop a week or so ago and 30yrs were in the 4.375-4.500 range without points on 30years. We refinanced over a year ago and got 4.750% with citizens and everything went quickly and smoothly. I probably could have gotten it a little lower on the internet but i had a bad experience with one of those companies trying to raise the rate they committed to and the fees we agreed on.they wasted a lot of my time so when they broke their word i saw that all the time they put into my mortgage was wasted too. I guess i wasted an appraisal fee but i felt much more comfortable with citizens. All i can say is do your research but do not waste a lot of time. It may be a very long time before we see such low interest rates again.
