Bad idea.
If I am correct, you have to pay 10% penalty. Is it not?

it's not just refi cost. it's to bring down the principal significantly.

>>>Just a principal pay down? Unless the loan is rewritten for the lower amount (i.e. a refi), is your payment not going to stay the same?

This is refinance with a lower rate. Need to do principal pay down by 6% coz the appraisal came low. The monthly payment will go down by 500 dollars.
Dunno if it's worth it to put in any money in the house if its value is already going down. Reading up here and there but can't decide. Should I wait one year for market to go up. Or should I just do it, dip into savings and forget it for next 5 years. The only risk in this is that
I'm expecting certain payments (loan repay) from certain people that will make up for 50% of the cost. But they may back out. In that case I'll have zero savings left.

>>>>Zero savings is not a good position to be in. Do some research on the market trends. RE prices have been on the rebound in parts of the country. See how your RE appraisal compares to what it may have been 6 months and 12 months ago. If it looks like it is gradually on the upswing, it may be worth the wait. I just did an appraisal on our home. For the first time, the prices are back, even slightly higher than what I bought it for 5 years ago.

It went down further than what it was in November. I think I know what I'll do. Hate to say it but it's more of an emotional decision, but that's how I roll sometimes. Will finalize today. Thanks!

vb,
most refi involves a new 30 year term. monthly payments will go down because of term extension. when rates are so low principal reduction is not a preferred option.
use'net present value' calculation. check on net if you need to know more about it.
give it another thought before you jump.

Ya. Not making sense to do the refi. In other words, it SUCKS to be me right now. #losersRus
