When siblings must make joint refinancing decisions amid Fed uncertainty

My brother and I jointly own some commercial property that we inherited, and we need to decide whether to refinance the mortgage given where we think Fed policy is heading. He's convinced rates have peaked and we should lock in now, I think they might go higher, and our current rate reset is forcing us to make a choice when neither of us feels confident about reading central bank intentions.
