RefinanceRefinancing your existing mortgage could mean substantial savings for you.
Refinances are usually done to lower your existing interest rate, but can also be done to:
- "Cash out" your equity
- Consolidate other existing debt
- Finance home improvements
- Or for other productive purposes
If your current loan is either through FHA or VA, both programs offer "streamline" refinancing to lower your interest rate only. In looking to refinance, it is generally accepted that the new refinanced interest rate should be at least 1% lower than your current rate to be cost effective.
