Considering a cash out refinance, looking for opinion on quotes
Currently have: 2.999% interest rate on 170K loan of 300K property, 30 yrs fixed (non owner occupied fourplex, purchased 2 years ago)
Thinking about this quote: 4.375% with 1% origination fee or 4.875%, 30 yrs fixed, cash out refinance, attempting to pull about 150-200K equity (estimating property value is now 425-450K) out to purchase newer SFH home or duplex to house hack.
The rents from fourplex total about $3100/mo.
My goal: To purchase a duplex to househack or SFH property to live in for a year with cash from cash out refi.
What are your thoughts on this? Do you think my situation could benefit from a cash out refinance? Does this quote seem to be in the good end for these types of loans?

Those are the about the Fannie Mae rates right now.
Whether to do it or not is really a math question. Can you make the cash out pay for itself and if the answer is a comfortable yes at those interest rates, then do it. In Newport News, check out Towne Bank and see what they're doing. You may be pleasantly surprised. I'd also look into a HELOC.
