Got an offer from a UWM broker at 2.875% no fees or credits. I'm really waiting for 2.75% to match to better.
I don't think it pays to wait. Rates may go down, but the marginal savings get pretty negligible. However, rates could jump up without much warning. 2.875% on a 30-year is phenomenal.

Did this require a hard pull?

Which state? I'm trying to find a UWM broker as well and in GA.
Can you send the info in PM please?
Any luck? I'm also in GA. Would be awesome if you have any tips on getting the best interest rate. PM is totally fine.

Do you price lock then shop around to see if they match or hold off until after they match?

Request that they beat your rate before locking. I started the Better application with a competitor's LE in-hand, ready for the request to beat it. I think if you try to match after locking, they may "match", but won't "beat" it by $1,000

I held off until after they matched. A lender may require some financial commitment to rate lock.

How are you guys getting the LE from lenderfi? Do you have to upload all of those documents? Any other lenders I should apply with to see if they beat better?

I had to upload W-2, Paycheck, Mortgage Statement, and DL. After that about 20 min later I got am email to finish the rest of the app. Within the app you can find the LE. So you dont have to finish the entire application, but I had to upload those 4 things.

No it took a hard pull.. but so will Better. Multiple hard pulls within a short window all from the same types of loans generally get the same treatment from the credit burrows. So I wouldn't worry about it.

I am a 2nd refinance with Better.com boat rider here. I am trying to refi again for my 15 year.

Thank you for the suggestion for GuaranteedRate. I tried Lenderfi, zillow, sebonic... all were high rates.

GuaranteedRate just gave me an LE for 2.375% for a 15 year with a .375 points. They have a 1100 lender fee in section A so its about 1926 total for section A. Submitted to Better.com to price beat. Hoping they do.

Loan is 230k, CA property.

Owning requires 300k+ loan or i would have gotten their LE.
