Can I cancel a loan application once it is signed and has gone to underwriting?

Yes you can. Of course if you paid for a credit report and appraisal, you won't get that money back.

Yes, I have done it recently. There was no problem.

I am having to pay closing costs and all fees and my interest rate will be 4.75.
i think I should reconsider.

@Elom Of course interest rates depend on a lot of variables but we were getting 3.25% + they were paying $10,000 of the closing costs on the house we just cancelled. You should shop around and see if you can do better.

We got 4.25. That was back in August when we locked in for our new build. They have gone up a lot since then. They are going to keep going up. So don’t expect them to go down.

Closing fees and costs are all normal expenses and will always be part of buying a home. Interest rates just went up to 4.75 for 30 years.
If you have signed a contract to buy property, you may have to pay a penalty to get out of the deal to purchase. If there is a max interest rate listed on your contract and it is under 4.75 interest, you may be able to get out for no penalty.
You just can’t get cold feet and back out of a purchase agreement. A contract is legal and binding.
The interest rate on my first home was 11.75%, So 4.75%is very low in comparison. If rates drop, you can refinance usually with no additional fees.

@Carmie She didn't say she was backing out of the entire deal - she just wants to shop around for a better mortgage.
Anbd when a person refinances a mortgage to get a lower rate there are fees and closing costs. However, they usually put them into the loan , but you still have them.

I am getting quotes on a refinance and rates have gone up. They are quoting me 5%+ so I would call around and be sure you can beat that rate before you let this loan go. Everyone has to pay closing costs unless your purchase contract specifies that the other party is paying your costs. If you were not able to negotiate with the seller to pay some of your costs and cash is an issue, sometimes the lender can raise your interest rate and pay some of your costs. Hope that helps.

You only have a few days to apply for and get a mortgage approved, so time is of the essence. Right now mortgage rates are up, and I don’t see them coming down. My credit union is offering 4.5% for 30 years and that is only .25% lower than the banks and mortgage companies are offering.
i remortgaged my house three times overthe years to get a lower rate and it never cost me even a penny to do so. Nothing was added into the loan. It was no cost or I would not have done so.
