Should I Refinance?

Looking to lower your rate, reduce your payment, or access your home's equity?

Refinancing involves replacing your existing mortgage with a new loan. Homeowners often choose to refinance for various reasons, such as securing a lower interest rate through a rate and term refinance to reduce monthly payments, shortening the loan term to pay off the home faster, switching from an adjustable-rate to a fixed-rate mortgage, or accessing equity built up in their homes through a cash-out refinance. Additionally, refinancing can help remove private mortgage insurance (PMI) once sufficient equity is achieved.


Determining whether refinancing makes sense requires consideration of your current rate, remaining loan balance, how long you plan to stay in the home, and your overall financial goals. Steve will help you navigate the numbers so you can make a well-informed decision.


Keep in mind that refinancing may increase the total finance charge over the life of the loan. All loans are subject to credit approval and underwriting guidelines. This statement is not a commitment to lend.

A cash-out refinance allows you to refinance for more than what you currently owe and receive the difference in cash.

A cash-out refinance allows you to refinance for more than what you currently owe and receive the difference in cash. To qualify for a cash-out refinance, you typically need sufficient equity in your home and must meet credit and income requirements. The amount you can access through this refinance option depends on your home's current value and your existing loan balance. Cash-out refinance loans, like rate and term refinance options, are subject to maximum loan-to-value limits, credit approval, and underwriting guidelines. Keep in mind that refinancing may increase the total finance charge over the life of the loan. This is not a commitment to lend.

A rate and term refinance allows you to adjust your interest rate, loan term, or both, without taking cash out of your home's equity. This option may be a great fit if: your current rate is significantly higher than today's rates; you want to shorten your loan term (for example, from 30 years to 15 years); or you wish to switch from an ad

A rate and term refinance allows you to adjust your interest rate, loan term, or both, without taking cash out of your home's equity. This option may be a great fit if: your current rate is significantly higher than today's rates; you want to shorten your loan term (for example, from 30 years to 15 years); or you wish to switch from an adjustable-rate mortgage to a fixed-rate loan for more payment stability. The savings from a rate and term refinance can vary based on your existing loan balance, current rate, new rate, and remaining term. Ask Steve to run a comparison for your specific situation, considering both rate and term refinance and cash-out refinance options.
