Could someone explain how points factor in when refinancing?
Hi jmross,
Paying points generally lowers the interest rate on your loan. Thus, you will have to pay lower interest rates if you pay the points upfront.
Thanks

Points buy down the interest rate. You're prepaying interest upfront.
Thanks for the information. That helps.
