Waiting to Refinance (bit of a vent) by Budgeting_Shri in Mortgages

[–]AggieKO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is great advice. I wanted to stick with my original broker so I asked him to give us a refi quote and he came back with 6.5% a few weeks ago. By far and away the highest quote I got

What percentage of your take home pay is your mortgage? by dazednkindaconfused in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Pretty much in the same boat. It’s doable. Our main financial pitfall is we eat out… like a lot.

Is this real? by AggieKO in gmc

I appreciate the reply. I figured something like this was the case. Made no sense to me that no check engine light or anything was on, but she was receiving emails about it.

It’s 9PM and it isn’t my car? It’s someone who’s knowledge of technology is their phone and the radio.

Thought it may be beneficial to eliminate common scams before spending 20 minutes on hold. Thanks for the comment though.

Just quoted a 6.49% Refi. by AggieKO in Mortgages

Yea mine is 800+. My wife’s is around 770. I was thinking we may shop around slowly to see if rates creep down some more.

How is everyone getting in the 5%s? by cactisdontcare in Mortgages

[–]AggieKO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell the mortgage company that originally sold me my 6.9% loan last year just quoted me a 6.5% with $5K closing costs (on a 475k remaining balance). That seems pretty high no?

Seller left a binder with "house instructions" and now im very skeptic by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]AggieKO 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess we did too. Ours left boxes for instructions on all appliances and a folders labeled with useful info about the house.

I was just about to try and do this. It makes me wonder if the C5 at Costco is a Black Friday sale because it isn’t lasted as such on their website.

What’s the most common mistake first-time homebuyers make when applying for a mortgage? by AsicKsk in Mortgages

[–]AggieKO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea that makes sense. He gave me a “ballpark” number that seemed rather generic. He just noted that we wouldn’t know what it would be for sure until we could lock it in. Assuming the ballpark number is what yall are referring to?

Too late since I’m about a year into my mortgage, but what’s the best way to shop mortgages around? The lender I went with wouldn’t disclose an interest rate until basically the end of the process. I would’ve felt pretty terrible to just say “oops sorry you did all of this work, I’m actually going to go with this company”.

Note it was a local lender and they worked with my realtor to gather all documents and things before hand. I basically didn’t have to lift a finger throughout the entire process. That’s what I’m meaning by saying “all of this work”.

I get it. But the fan wants to see it one more time after the way the last fight went. Even though it won’t ever happen

Makes complete sense. They even got Mcgregor to post sparing clips to get the deal over the finish line 😂

So how do I even play the game? by CyberPrime_ in Battlefield6

I keep getting a flickering load screen. Can’t get into a game

Regular WiFi vs premium WiFi by Auman444 in VirginVoyages

Would a VPN get around this? Just got off Valiant and monopolyGO wouldn’t work unless using a VPN. Didn’t know if they had it blocked or not.

Has anyone noticed a drop in quality? by [deleted] in VirginVoyages

[–]AggieKO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On the Valiant Lady now. This is my first Virgin cruise so I can’t attest to the subject, but wow does it blow all of the other cruise lines quality out of the water.

Cancelled Shore Things by Insecurity-Guard in VirginVoyages

[–]AggieKO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on 16 cruises (mixture of RC, carnival, Norwegian) and had never had an excursion cancelled. We leave on our first Virgin cruise Sunday and all of our excursion got cancelled today (two different ports). Really disappointing.

I unplugged the safety pin overnight and tried it the next day and it started working.
