What is a mortgage refinance?

When you refinance your mortgage, you are simply replacing your current home loan with a new one. The most popular reason to refinance is to get a lower interest rate, which could save you money over the life of the loan. Other reasons to refinance include:

Change the loan term.
Switch from an adjustable-rate mortgage to a fixed-rate loan.
Switch from an FHA loan with a PMI requirement to a conventional loan.
Cash out some of your equity to use for home renovations or debt payoff.

Insights from Cynthia Mackenzie:

How can I find out if refinancing is right for me?

If your interest rate is higher than the current market rates, then refinancing could be the right choice for you.

You should not refinance if you cannot lower your interest rate by at least 1 ½ to 2 percent or more.

If you are having trouble paying your mortgage and current market rates are lower than your interest rate, then a Rate & Term Refinance could also be a good option.

Will refinancing save me money?

If you can shorten your payment schedule (term) and lower your monthly mortgage payment, then this will save you money over the life of the loan.

Shorter term = less interest paid

Lower rate = lower monthly payment

How long does the refinancing process take?

Generally, the time it takes to refinance your mortgage could take anywhere from 30 – 45 days.

When you consider there are appraisals, title work, inspections, and other third-party vendors that all play a major part in the process, It is hard to pinpoint an exact timeline.
