Stone Mountain Georgia - Refinance

[Jason Pennacchio]

I currently have a 30 years fixed on an out of state (I live in NYC) SFH investment near Atlanta, GA. My lender at the time of purchase (April 2018) had what was then good rates with very reasonable closing costs. I have since asked for refinance quotes a couple of times when rates dropped, most recently March 2020 and the lowest quote I got from him was 4.375%. Historically that'd be great but I'm hearing friends get below 3% now on primary residential loans in NYC, so I'm getting a bit jealous. Anyone know of reputable brokers/lenders refinancing with good rates/closing costs. Any idea why I'd get quoted above 4% in such a low rate environment (Credit Score > 814, LTV < 75%). Any refi advice appreciated, its a small loan ($75k).

@Jason Pennacchio At the moment there is a big bifurcation or spread between investor-owned and primary residence. Lenders are generally more cautious about potential tenants not being able to pay rent in this high unemployment environment. The best I got also is 4% for investor-owned refi in my local market. Also many lenders are not doing cash out for investor-owned at all.
