Investors & landlords

I still do not think that is correct.  When you refinance a home, there are still fees that are incurred, like these:

- Legal fees (including title search and preparation of the sales contract and deed).

- Recording fees.

- Surveys.

- Owner's title insurance.

 

They apply on a refi just as the would on a new purchase.  You have to get a new title policy if you have owned the house for more than a few years.

 

Are you saying they ALL get amortized over the life of the loan, as opposed to some being added to the basis (and depreciated) versus some being amortized?
