Why act in the next 90 days
- • Rate holds are often available up to 120 days before maturity — waiting until the last week leaves money on the table.
- • Uninsured straight switches (same balance, same amortization, no new money) are exempt from the prescribed MQR since November 21, 2024; B-20 and lender overlays remain.
- • Your bank’s posted renewal offer is rarely their best rate — a competing commitment letter changes the negotiation.
