    Yes, it could cost you 2 percent or more of the loan balance. So, if you owe $100,000 it will probably cost you at least $2,000 to refinance. And, it may be very difficult to qualify right now, given the current credit crisis.

    Your rate is very good, and I doubt you would be able to do better than a 6 percent APR right now. I don’t think you would be able to make up the difference between the high cost of refinancing and the money you might save on a lower rate. With a $100,000 balance, it would take you about four years to break even IF you managed to refinance with total costs of $2,000.

    It depends on how long you plan on staying in your house and what the new rate will be.

    You will pay closing costs and points to refinance. In some cases it may actually cost you more to refinance if you don’t plan on staying in your home that long.

    I would not. The fees and charges often off set the money saved by refinancing to a lower rate mortgage. Besides, you are playing another mans game and he is better at it than you are. Your six point five is not bad. Stick with it .
