WHAT IS REFINANCING?

When you refinance a home, you get a new mortgage, usually with the goal of lowering monthly payments, interest rates, shortening the term or getting extra cash for debt payoff or a big purchase. Most people refinance when they have equity in their home, which is the difference between the amount owed to the lender and the worth of the home.

REFINANCING OPTIONS

There are two major types of refinancing options:

  • Rate-and-term refinancing allows you to refinance the remaining balance of your mortgage for a more affordable interest rate and term
  • Cash-out refinancing which allows you to take out a new mortgage for more than the previous mortgage, giving you cash to pay off existing debt or use for a big purchase

Other reasons people refinance are: to replace an adjustable-rate mortgage with a fixed-rate loan or, to eliminate FHA mortgage insurance. Head to our home mortgages page to learn more about these terms.

REFINANCING PROCESS

The first thing you should do is speak with a mortgage lending representative, like Joe and Brad, to see what types of refinancing options are available to you for the goals you want to meet.

Once you know what your new mortgage will be, it’s time to figure out how feasible it is for you to pay it off, and how that will be accomplished. When refinancing, it can also benefit you to hire an attorney to decipher the meaning of some of the more complicated paperwork.
