Has anyone with an FHA loan done a streamline re-fi?
My friend, who closed on her house with an FHA loan a couple of months before us is doing this right now, she's locked in at 6% (so are we) and she'll soon be locked in at 5%. Supposedly there is minimal paperwork and no closing costs. This sounds too good to be true. Just wondering if anyone has taken advantage of this?

What is a streamline Re-fi? We closed on our house in February. We got a great interest rate but we HATE our mtg company and would like to re-fi to get rid of them.

We did this 6 years ago. We used the same company we got out mortagage with way back then. It was sooooo easy and obviously got us a better rate. Back then we were with Continental Capital.

yes, going through the process now. We will go from 6.5% to 5% but we are paying closing costs.
ETA: we are not paing closing cost out of pockect - they are rolling it into the mortgage.
