Two refi offers. One through Wells Fargo, which is the current mortgage servicer. Another through CapWest, via Costco. The CapWest one is lower, but I'm wondering if there is anything I'm missing.

I recently started a refi process with a broker highly recommended by a friend. Everything went swimmingly until our rental unit brought the entire process to a halt. Appraisal fee out the door and no new mortgage. What to do now?

[RefiFilter]: I'm applying for a re-fi on my condo, and just got a HORRIBLE appraisal. Like, so horrible the mortgage broker AND the underwriter of the loan both are scratching their heads. Short question: do I dispute, or suck it up and blow another $500 in hopes of getting a more realistic appraisal?

Does anyone have any experience with Quicken Loans for mortgage or re-fi; specifically, with the supposed "go with us and never pay closing costs again to re-fi or get another mortgage" policy?
