NO POINTS / NO CLOSING COST LENDER CREDIT REFINANCE PROGRAM

At Draper and Kramer Mortgage Corp., we offer a way for qualified borrowers to refinance their current mortgage and pay no closing costs. We achieve this by providing a lender credit that covers all closing costs associated with the refinance. That means no points, no hidden fees and no surprises!

To take advantage of this program, you pay a slightly higher interest rate – typically 1/8 to 1/4 of a percentage point higher, but we pay all your closing costs via a lender credit. That means no lender fees, appraisal fees, title fees or attorney fees. So, does paying a higher rate really make sense? In many cases, the answer is yes!

Consider this example. On a $250,000 loan, the closing costs to refinance would be approximately $2,800. If you paid this $2,800, the after tax-savings for the slightly lower rate would be only about $30 per month. So, it takes 90 months, or almost 8 years, to break even.

But what if you paid no closing costs and invested that $2,800

instead? Invested at 4% in a high-yield savings or investment account, $2,800 could earn you almost $10 per month, after taxes. Once you take this into account, the break-even point when paying closing costs is actually over 11 years. Compare this to the length of the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage in the U.S., which is only about 6 years according to Fannie Mae. This is because many homeowners move to a new home, cash-out for home improvements, use home equity for college education expenses or refinance their existing mortgage to a lower rate.

With no closing costs to worry about, if mortgage rates drop after your refinance closes, you can simply refinance again with no closing costs via a lender credit. This can be much more appealing than paying (or rolling into your loan) approximately $2,800 every time rates drop!

As you can see, a no-closing-cost mortgage refinance can be a superior financial strategy. Contact me today to learn about this and your other refinance options.
