REFINANCE INFO & FAQ

---

A refinance mortgage is a loan that is used to pay off your existing mortgage and/or to access equity in your property. It is secured by residential real estate.

Homeowners can lower their interest rates, reduce their mortgage terms and reduce their risk through implementation of a fixed-rate loan. Using cash-out refinancing, a homeowner may borrow for any reason, from medical emergencies to desperately wanting to visit The Bahamas. 

For those of you who have good credit and 20% or more equity in your home, not at all. If you have a lower credit score and/or a higher loan to value, talk to a refinance specialist to determine your chances at getting approved.

Absolutely! However, Jumbo loans are more risky for lenders, and may come at higher interest rates than a Conforming loan. 

If you have a mortgage with a rate above the current market rates, have an adjustable rate and want to reduce payment risk, have equity in your home and need cash or if you want to improve your cash flow by lowering your monthly payments, refinancing your home may be right for you.
