It's a question many homeowners are asking themselves these days. No doubt there are some great reasons to refinance.
-
Save more money - Interest rates are still low. Your monthly
payments will be reduced if you get a low rate or when your loan term is extended.
-
Convert an ARM to a fixed rate mortgage - Lock in a low rate. Repay the loan with
stable payments.
-
Eliminate PMI - If your current loan balance is below 80%, refinance and
eliminate Private Mortgage Insurance.
-
Pay down your mortgage quickly - Shorten the length of your mortgage by
reducing the loan term. Monthly payments will go up, but you can save more in the overall interest payment. And, you'll be debt free in a shorter time.
-
Extra cash now - If you have enough home equity, borrow more than the current
loan balance and pay off credit card balances with the extra cash. Mortgage
interest is deductible. Credit card interest is not.
-
Consolidate two loans - You can consolidate first and second mortgages if there's enough equity (due to high appreciation), and refinance into a single first
mortgage. You'll most likely have a lower monthly payment.
