Together with Quicken Loans, Oliver closed on his house in just over three weeks, and found it the most pleasant mortgage experience he had ever had.

Question by mnorth12: What should my closing costs be when refinancing?
I want to refinance on my home but I just found out from the bank I’m working with now that I’ll have around $ 2500 in closing costs. Is that a lot or not? I’ve heard of people refinancing from much less, like $ 400. Thanks.

Today you can get a NO COST refi at 4.875% APR 4.875%. Assumes single-family, owner-occupied, FICO > 740, LTV < 80%, not a condo, escrow impounds, and loan amount > $ 300k.

Should it be this much to refinance the mortgage? (There are no problems with our credit, just a normal refinance for a lower rate)
