I?m roughly 6 months out from closing and my builder lender (WF) is asking if I want to lock now ahead of the Fed meeting next week for $5k cost.
Rate for a jumbo 7/6 is 3.875% with one free float down when I get 45-60 days out. Builder lender also pays for any costs due to builder delay. Seems like I have nothing to lose (other than the 5k cost).
They are offering points 3.75%($5k) and 3.625% ($12k) but given the free float down option I feel like I should pass on this even though the break even point is roughly 2.9yrs and 3.6yrs, respectively.
Has anyone seen better than this? Thoughts?
