He says that we can go ahead and close now with a low interest rate, and then simply reamoratize when we sell our old home to reduce the payments for a fee ranging from $300 to about $1200.

It’s sad but true, you really need to be a skeptic with every dollar that you spend because it seems that there is no shortage of people who try to sell you things that you don’t need, or simply skim your money out of a deal (like an insurance agent).
