What is the loan amount? What are your credit scores?
It doesn't sound "good" to me.
Who is the Lender? Do you have a Good Faith Estimate?
If you could give more details, you'll get more feedback.

You should be able to get a much better rate then that. Something closer to 4.0% on a streamline in this market.
" Actually, it is not a TILA violation, "
Actually, it is. Mentioning no origination and no underwriting fee is a triggering event. See line iv:
"(d) Advertisement of terms that require additional disclosures--(1) Triggering terms. If any of the following terms is set forth in an advertisement, the advertisement shall meet the requirements of paragraph (d)(2) of this section:

And we know it was an advertisement on your part because it had to be removed as self promotion.

Hey Professor Chuck,
Actually, it is not a TILA violation, unless I am missing something. If you are referring to a missing APR, I did not quote a specific rate, therefore, an APR is not required.

It includes my taxes, pmi, principal and interest payments. I think I could get the payment lower yet, the reason I may want to try and shop because of the market I think I can rent my place for 600-650. I could move into a rental until my place sold or the market picks back up.

current rate is 6.875%, current payment is 744 rounding up. The new payment would be 626 at 4.75%. It would cost me about 300-500 for closing because it is a Streamline to lock my rate for 45 days, which I would recoup in 3-4 months. I was just curious if I should keep shopping the rates because I have seen them lower but with the holidays I really do not have the time to be shopping have more important things to do.

I have no idea what is causing your rate to be so high. We are about 1% less than your rate & that's with no origination or discount fees, plus we waive your Underwriting fee if you have decent credit scores & of course, no appraisal.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions, I'd be glad to help.
All the best,
Ros

Getting real close on closing on an FHA Streamline at 4.75% with good credit is this a good rate?
