@Aaron Gallington- thanks ...if you dont need to complete the refinance now - I would wait for a little bit ....you might get fully approved for the new loan with a lender to make sure you are able to get the loan but  hold off on locking a rate and completing the loan until rates drop a bit more ...if you are able to obtain conv financing - go this route as  75% ltv should be available and  rates / fees  should be much better than a  DSCR program - thanks
