3.75% now. I'm about 6 years into a 30 year. If I refi, how long before those savings exceed the cost of the transaction?

Not worth the trouble - stick with the current loan

Worst case scenario is payoff 4 to 5 years from now. Same answer?

Probably not. Do an amortization schedule

Cash our refi and lock in a low rate and invest the difference.

This is the answer. Don’t know why you wouldn’t do this if you can get a no cost

If you can get 2.5% for 30 years and the tax savings, that is

Get a no closing cost loan, or super low closing cost
