I wonder if I can get this benefit a second time around.
I originally refi'ed one property and got the bonus 2 years back. Now in a different house, and thinking of refi'ing, anyone know if I can get the bonus a second time around?

Yes, already confirmed this with the loan agent who's helping me, as I'm in the same boat. He told me that I qualify again, even though I did this twice last year (and he found both my applications).

Rates change daily. They use the St. Louis FED index as a reference:

For example, today's index is 2.96, and Better is offering me 2.875 with $1k loan credit, with a 762 credit score.

Thanks for the link.

I refinanced to a 20year fixed in August 2020 with RocketMortgage with an amex promotion. Looks like rates are pretty much the same as the rate back then. I wonder if it's still worth exploring this deal though.

Does every amex holder qualify? I remember for the deal last year, you had to have received an invitation email from Amex for the deal. I got one from RocketMortgage, but not better.com

Loved this deal last year. Downside this year is the .5% adverse market fee added to the loan by Fannie Freddie. Either will cost you more upfront or you take a hit on your rate to get rid of that half a point cost.

Can anyone confirm this works for all amex cardholders regardless of which card you have?

You can still qualify, but you have to call Better Mortgage at this number 877-688-3252 prior to closing.

What happens if you cancel your Amex account after you re-fi?

I took advantage of the $2,500 statement credit deal they had last year. I got an even better deal on closing costs by having Better Mortgage match a loan estimate I received from a credit union.
