I know a lot of questions come up about loans and interest rates. I'm looking to throw throw in another 15-20k and refinance my loan. I currently have a 20 yr, 7.24% fro 68k. Anyone go through this recently? Good banks? Bad banks? Brokers? Fees? Any input would be appreciated.

Several website with alot of different sources:

Just did mine at 5th/3rd for 6.75%. I told a friend and he got the same rate, but the branch he used didn't know about the low rate until they called the branch I used. Mine was a 2001 28'Eliminator and his was a 1999 28' Eliminator.

what the heck is 5th/3rd???

I just did a refinance through Fifth Third. Changed from 8% down to 6.5% (saved me a ton) That was with a the managers discount otherwise it would of been 6.75%

Fith Third is a bank based out of Cincinnati Ohio and they are growing fast. Scott

Do you have a 800# or web site for them?

To my knowledge, DonziMitch (from the board) does this at fifth third. Might try shooting him a email.

Their website is http://53.com

Do you have a contact name and phone number ? If so would you e-mail it to me at [email protected]

Was this the same company another OSO member had some problems with?

No this is not like Key Bank. I have used them for years with no trouble.
