Hey Guys, We are a lender based in Houston but we do loans also in San Antonio and Dallas.

My situation: I have an FHA loan at about 5.5% and my understanding is that it usually makes sense to refi once rates are about .5% lower than your existing rate, which means I may need another .75 to 1% decrease in the rate.

It can be a lot of time and work if doing it on your own.
