What are closing costs at that rate?

3.2% of purchase price

Jumbo or conventional?

Conventional.

I know a few got around 3-3.2% 30yr fixed. We got our house refinanced around October 2020 for 2.3 %15yr fixed

Just got 2.75 for 480k in October. I think around 5k closing costs

Same I just refinance and got 2.65

I'm not seeing many options for her besides to continue pmts, fixing just enough to drive or voluntary repo. Thoughts?

Anyone else just sitting around waiting for the ax to drop? I'm a soon to be 2nd year corporate associate who has seen work completely dry up. My utilization held pretty steady around 50% immediately after shutdown, but August was below 15 billables with no appreciable work in the pipeline. Aside from letting people know I'm available and doing pro-bono/CLE, it's starting to feel like a serious "covidcation" leading to termination.
