Originally, I was locked in at 3.125% with UWM (united wholesale mortgage) but rates went down further and UWM didn't want to unlock me so my mortgage broker switched lenders to Plaza home mortgage for the 2.75% rate.On one of my other 4plex's that's NOO (non owner occupied) I'm refinancing out of a VA to a conventional 75% LTV mortgage so I can restore my VA entitlement in order to use my VA for a 3rd 4plex this year and I'm locked in at 4.674% but I'm thinking I should hold out a little longer for rates to drop further.
