Shawn, the only thing missing was a $ for $ comparison of my added cost of giving up the remaining portion of my 2.25% adjustable mortgage. That plus I have no idea how much ppd escrow I’m getting back.
I asked you to talk with me after signing the new mtg but all I received in return was a survey request, kinda disappointing but still have you top ratings because everything else was great!
Still looking for the answer to those two questions, please reply.

Shawn was on top of my refinance from the beginning to the end, making it painless and fast; and getting me a much lower rate, saving me tons of money to boot!!!
