Anybody from Florida refinancing a 2nd or 3rs time? I did once with Better in Feb but now trying to do it again. Better matched my LE from a local bank (2.75% with AB @ $1400) but add in C and E, no credits J, and the AMEX credit and I'm still looking at 24 months payback. Is it just me or is it hard to refinance again when title and taxes is about $5-6k each time?
How do you get title and taxes to reach $5k? Way more than what I have seen here and on ours.

Florida documentary taxes on loans are not cheap.

do you have to tell them about the amex as part of match? or it automatic aware.
When you request Better to match competing loan estimates, no need to mention anything about AMEX offer. Simply send them the LE within 1 day and ask them to match/beat it, and persistently follow-up with your Better loan officer/concierge/processing expert.

To be eligible for AMEX credit, you ether need to have signed up through the AMEX link OR ask your Better contact to make sure that it is added/tagged onto your account/loan. I signed up through the link and it was automatic. Even if you sign up through the link it is a good idea to confirm with Better that your loan is eligible for the credit.

Just got Better to match my Loan Cabin LE. It may not be the best deal in this thread but I'm happy with it.

2.5% on a 30year. No points. A+B+C=$1100. $500 in lender credit. $2500 in AMEX promo.
Beats the heck out of my deal... One question, did you opt in or out of escrow?

Question about float down. I originally locked with better on 6/24. Since that time I have moved on my rate table and had them match a competitor but again my original lock was 6/24. How does float down work? Is it based off of what the published rates were on the day of lock Vs the day of float down? How would I check to see if I would be float down eligible based on the rates? Do I have to specifically request a float down? When is "too late" to do that? Thanks

Thanks. That's helpful and puts my offer in about the same ballpark. I'm at 45% LTV and refinanced 2 months ago through Better at 3.125% jumbo and was quoted for 2.99% if I paid down to conforming at that time.

In a similar situation, hoping to have opportunity for another refinance.. I closed yesterday and waiting for my loan to fund.

I tried to start another loan application on their website but the first step is to put in my property address, then it says "You already have a loan application for this address" and does not let me start a new application.

Would appreciate any tips if anyone knows how to work around this to get another application started while in closing stages of current refinancing.

*UPDATE* - Looks like if you are signed out of your better account it lets you start another app... Not sure if it will qualify but perhaps it's worth a try?
Why not?!
