Refinancing

Thinking about refinancing my house....

According to the Wall Street Journal today, I could get a 15 year fixed rate mortgage at 3.5% (now I have a 30 year fixed rate at 5.5%).

Switching to 15 yr at 3.5% would save me $156,000 over the remaining life of my loan and would cost an extra $150 per month compared to what I am paying now.
