The rates in your post are way lower than I see when I just did a test application. Getting close to what I have locked and processing right now.
Looking at a $165k loan, 760 FICO. Go figure.

They said there was a pricing error when they sent the first estimate. The latest one is 30 year 2.5% $761K with A+B+C=$1905 and lender credit of $1174, so net $731 cost. Not too bad
