Anyone with an FHA loan may want to look into refinancing. President Obama is allowing homeowners with FHA loans (before 2009/2010?) to refinance with no closng costs or home appraisal. I called my mortgage broker. She said to wait until after June 17th to refinance b/c the mortgage insurance is super high right now. It will drop after June 17th.
Have a great day!
Re: PSA--Those with FHA loans (NTTCR)
I hate paying that insurance too! We have about 2 more years of it before it comes off.
I'm not sure, but I'd guess it's to refi into another FHA loan.
Thanks so much for sharing the info. Much appreciated!

I think what OP is referring to is an FHA streamline re-finance where it is still an FHA loan, but you lock in a lower rate. It's great for people (like me) who owe more on their home than it is worth and wouldn't qualify for a conventional loan refinance for that reason. I'm trying to get mine done too.
