You have to look at it from the point of view of your old lender and your new lender, Lepre says: Both lenders are entitled to earn interest from the day they lend the money until the day they receive final payment. In a refinancing transaction, the new lender funds the loan by wiring money to the bank of the escrow agent or attorney who is responsible for disbursing the money. As soon as the new lender sends that money, the clock starts ticking and you pay interest.

What does it mean to have 0 points or 1 point or 2 points? A point is one percentage of the loan amount. Lenders offer rates which may be lower but require paying points. A rate of 7.875% with 1 point for a loan of $100,000 would require the borrower to pay a total of $1000 to the lender upon settlement of the loan. A rate of 8.000% with 0 points will require no payment to the lender, but the interest rate is slightly higher. Points will lower rates and are of benefit if you have some cash for the down payment and can therefore lower the rate. You should intend to keep the loan for its full term.

If interest rates are trending up, it makes sense to lock in your rate. If interest rates are trending down, it makes sense to float your interest rate so that you can take advantage of a shorter lock-in period. When rates are fairly stable, it also makes sense to float your loan to take advantage of a lower price for a shorter lock-in.

If you have questions about the equations used, or need more information about your specific situation, you should consult your real estate professional or a mortgage lender.
