We applied for a VA Refi trying to consolidate other bills. The rep was always there if we had any questions. My husband was a veteran as well as servicing the public up to his retirement as a Baltimore City Firefighter.
We had passed the credit check and had sent over some personal information that was requested. Like I said the representative was always there to answer any question. When we received the docs from them - disclosures along with the estimated closing sheet - that is where the problem became clear.
With the paying off of the mortgage also funding our escrow the numbers still seemed way too high. When we called the representative we wanted to know why we had to pay to bring down the rate. The rate we were quoted was 4.75%, that was higher than our credit union which offered 3.25%. But the real problem was the 1.5% to the tune of $4300 extra to buy down the rate so it was not 4.75 but 5.25%. Using Veterans is unforgivable.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
