Closing cost too high for cashout Refinance Condo

Closing cost too high for cashout Refinance Condo

Member since 2023 · 2 posts · 0 votes

Hey Guys,

I have a question, I own a property cash and I am looking to cash out refi, The property appraised at 205K and I am cashing out 100K , my closing costs are considerably high, 5.5K compared to closing costs I have endured when purchasing my home. more details from closing disclosure:

I am getting 6.75 % mortgage rate (not locked), Origination fee is $3758 ( 2.5% loan points - $2684, processing fee $699 and underwriting fee-: $375), Escrow payment at closing : $1076, Services can not shop for: $1180 and services you can shop for: $1062

I think I am paying too much on origination fee also I think closing cost should be 1-2% of the loan.  I am fairly new to real estate investing- this is my first home that I am trying to do that, 

Please help me, Any thoughts and opinion are appreciated.

    6.75% interest rate seems to align with a traditional bank lender. Usually you will see a 1% origination fee. However, you will typically have a loan doc prep, appraisal, and a few other misc. expenses. Did you pay for the appraisal separately ahead of time? These other fees could be baked into your 2.5% loan points. Also could there have been a rate buy down built into origination fee?

    Thank you Stuart for your reply. As I am doing cash out refi, lender told me that buy down doesn't apply.

    How can I lower my closing cost?

    Are the loan points and the origination fee both separate charges? 

    If they are points, are they discount points for the rate? Is this for a primary residence or investment property? 

    On something like this you could expect. $3,000 Origination, $1395 UW, $699 Processing for a DSCR loan.
