We get about $500 off the property tax and $12,500 tax exempt for pensions and 401k's. Seems like I get all the taxes back that I pay the state also DE has no sales tax.

I refi'd in 2007 from a fixed 7% to fixed 2.15%. Nearing payoff in about 5 years but with inflation, I'm better keeping the 2.15% than if I paid off. Not but 10,000$ or so to go.
