Refinance Mortgages

What is Refinancing?

Getting a new mortgage loan to replace the original is called refinancing. Refinancing is done to allow a borrower to obtain a different, and even better interest term and rate. The first loan is paid off, allowing the second loan to be created, instead of simply making a new mortgage and throwing out the original mortgage. For borrowers with a perfect credit history, refinancing can be a good way to convert a variable loan rate to a fixed, and obtain a lower interest rate.

One of the main advantages of refinancing regardless of equity is reducing an interest rate. Often, as people work through their careers and continue to make more money they are able to pay all their bills on time and thus increase their credit score. With this increase in credit comes the ability to procure loans at lower rates, and therefore many people refinance for this reason. A lower interest rate can have a profound effect on monthly payments, potentially saving you hundreds of dollars a year.

Second, many people refinance in order to obtain money for large purchases such as cars, education or to reduce credit card debt. The way they do this is by refinancing for the purpose of taking equity out of the home. A refinance with cash out is a great way to fund expenses at a low interest rate.
