Re: time limits

The mortgage documents are usually presented to the borrower at closing for review. You can contact the bank attorneys in advance and request copies of the documents to review prior to closing. Additionally, since this is a refinance, you have a 72 hour window before funding of the loan for recision. In other words, you have three days to change your mind after closing.
