Definitely worth it. If rates get better, you float down and don’t lose out on what you paid. Or you go to another lender if there’s more to gain in savings there.
If they get worse, you’re protected.

My company has a 1% non refundable fee required within 15 days of lock. For a 9 month lock it is .25% higher in rate and a 12 month lock
It is 0.5% higher in rate.
We didn’t think rates would hit 6%-7%-8% and they are, we also think rates will come down next year, and they probably won’t.
The 1% non refundable fee goes towards your overall cost of the loan or towards buying down your rate, so it’s not lost.
My last borrower who closed two weeks ago on a new build would have loved to lock his 5.75% rate and pay a non refundable fee in hindsight to his now locked 6.5% rate.
If you find lower rates elsewhere when your build is complete, chalk the 1% up as a loss to hedge your bets long term. You should be able to write it off as well, talk to a CPA.
