Loan talk

The Globe interviews a couple of Wellesleyites for an article about the challenges of refinancing big home loans. From the article:

“I think it is crazy you can’t get as good a rate,” said Julia Blake, 36, who with her husband is looking to refinance the Cape they bought in Wellesley for $695,000 in 2007. “To me, a jumbo loan should be a luxury house, and in Wellesley it is not. You can’t get anything less than $600,000.”
