For those interested on how the "$2500 credit is associated during the process".

I just got this task to complete (see attachment). It was a day after I started the closing process of their online portal.

FYI, I completed that the day after closing (Feb 13th) and still no credit nearly a month later. My "Dedicated Concierge" reached out yesterday and asked for the same exact information. I guess it got lost in the shuffle the first time I submitted it. Still within the "8-12 weeks", so no point in raising hell, yet.

This may be true that lenders inflate mortgage rate. Last week I was getting 3.25% from lenders. Today a new lender quotes me 3.5%.

Yes. I locked in at 3.25% for 20 year (Jan 30th lock) at better for $4600 credit and $2500 Amex.
The newbies here started posting it will go down to 1% and I was ripped off but I actually got a good rate just before everything started coming down. Will always keep an eye out for lower rates at $0 fee and I think that's what others should do too.
Take the $2500 Amex credit if you're getting a lower rate than what you are currently paying and if it's at $0 cost. Then refi later if rates start to go down further.
I'm a day trader and not a financial advisor but have some idea on how rates work during high demand times.

rates have up ticked a bit over the past few days
http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/...rates.aspx

little write up in lenders tightening credit offers..maybe a reason why some of the large lenders I saw online not having any good lender paid credits for some of the rates anymore.

You got a really great deal. 3.25% 20 years with $7100 credit. I also just locked 3.25% 20 year with better. But my loan cost is $5100. Even with $2500 Amex credit, I'm still paying $2600 loan cost.

Try RMS mortgage..im in Ma but they have a presence in NC.
before the spike I was able to lock 2.875 30yr 0 points with 3200 closing costs
they actually have an app that allows you to process your application, got a call back next day with rates and locked in, paper work followed same day now just waiting..they are all busy at the moment.
