An investor obtained a fully amortizing mortgage five years ago for $175,000 at 11.5% for 30 years. Mortgage rates have dropped so that a fully amortizing 20-year loan can be obtained at 10%. There is no prepayment penalty on the mortgage balance of the original loan, but 3 points will be charged on the new loan and other closing costs will be $3000. All payments are monthly. What is the effective "cost" of refinancing?
