2) The offer is only available to those borrowers who have been marketed to directly by American Express, and those who have not received the offer on their Amex portal or via email are not eligible.

Getting 2.5% on 15 year with 4200 Lender credit versus 2700 (ABC)

Quick question - can Lender credit be used to fund escrow as there will be additional credit left after ABC and prepaids ?

Anyone recommend a closing company in Houston or Texas that has decent closing costs? I think title with the company I would use is around $1200-1400 so about 1900 -2000 total. I got $2K lender credit so it would cover it all.

Who did you match in PA? I have 800+ credit and I can barely find 2.5 with some point fees.

Hi, I have a Hilton Honor Amex Card. Can I get on the promo with this AMEX card? Or do I need a non-branded Amex Card to qualify?

Hi,

I have the AMEX Hilton Honors card. Do I qualify for this promotional $2500? Do I need to get a non-branded AMEX credit to proceed?

Thanks,

PA is tricky, I locked 2.75%/15ys Fixed with $2000 lender credit on $170K loan yesterday. I was getting $500 credit at 2.5% before I locked.

The rep stated that's the lowest their system will allow. Tried with few reps no luck. I will save few hundred bucks by going with my own title co

I am waiting to hear back from my team about a rate match I submitted yesterday. Hopefully they come back with something close to what you got. Congrats on the great rate!

They are issuing me a $4600 credit which is funding some of the prepaids/escrow. They are also asking for 1 year's property tax paid upfront - which seems a bit excessive for a July close. [Tax typically paid in November.]

They initially matched 2.62 with 800 in fees but then I complained about rates going down everywhere before I locked and they came out with 2.5 and 29.00 credit.
I wont share other lender because he barely did anything on my loan but wont give me back my 750.00 "lock in fee".
