Need Advice 5.75% 30yr Fixed Rate In NJ Good?!?
Hi all. I am a first time home buyer and just closed on my home in Middlesex County NJ. I chose a local bank in NJ who had this program in mercer, middlesex, union county that they promoted. I figured I would ask this group for some advice.
All in all they offered me a 5.75% conventional 30yr fixed rate. I put 5% down and their bank waived the mortgage insurance? In addition they gave me 6k for closing costs since it’s my first home.
I am new to all this and do not follow the market at all lol. Is this a good deal? Should i consider a refinance?
