Why Refinance

to Find a Better Rate:
the key reason why home owners refinance their mortgage is to lower their current rate. Your new rate should be 1-2 points lower than your current rate in order to benefit:

calc:

compare mortgage refi terms

to Get Into a Stable Mortgage Product:
homeowners with payment-risk mortgages such as adjustables, interest-only, minimum payments, and other high-risk mortgages will refinance into more stable, fixed-rate mortgage loan.

Many of these payment-risk mortgages do not build equity and/or are subject to negative amortization:

Another Reason Why Refinance

Many homeowners will refinance their home mortgage to take extra cash out for home improvements, paying off debts, college education, auto buying, and other.

They will refinance at a higher mortgage value to repay their existing mortgage loan and take cash out for need expenditures.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Refi Advantages

lower payments:
refinancing your current mortgage can lower your monthly payments

cash out:
refinancing your current mortgage at higher loan amounts allows you to take cash out to pay home improvement, debt balances, and other cash needs

better tems:
refinancing your current mortgage can put you in better payoff terms; i.e., paying off an ARM mortgage and moving into a fixed-rate mortgage

Refi Disadvantages:

refinancing costs:
refinancing your mortgage will cost you in loan processing and closing costs

these costs may never be recovered if you decide to move out our home within a short period of time

loaded loan balance:
many lenders will add the refinancing costs to your new mortgage loan so that you do not have to bring cash to the closing table

tacking on the costs simply increases your new mortgage loan amount, for example:

if your current payoff mortgage is $120,000, and closing costs are $2,000, your total refinancing loan amount is $122,000
