Reducing Your Monthly Payments

Is your refinance primarily to lower your rate and monthly payments? If so, applying for a low, fixed-rate loan could be a good option for you. Maybe you currently have a higher rate fixed rate mortgage, or perhaps you hold an ARM — adjustable rate mortgage — in which the interest rate can vary. Even as interest rates rise, a fixed-rate mortgage loan must stay at the same, low interest rate, unlike an ARM. If you aren't planning on moving in the near future (about 5 years), a fixed-rate mortgage can particularly be a good choice. On the other hand, if you can see yourself selling your home before too long, an ARM mortgage with a small initial rate could be the best way to lower your monthly payment.

Cashing Out

Is "cashing out" your main reason for refinancing? Perhaps you're dreaming of a cruise; you need to pay college tuition for your child; or you are updating your kitchen. So you will need to find a loan higher than the balance remaining of your present mortgage loan.With this goal, you'll need However, if your interest rate is currently high and you have held it for a long time, you could be able to reach your goals without making your monthly payments increase.

Consolidating Your Debt

Do you want to cash out some of your home equity to consolidate additional debt? Great plan! If you have enough home equity, paying off other debt with rates higher than your mortgage (credit cards or home equity loans, for example) could help save you a lot of cash every month.

Switching to a Shorter Term Loan

Are you hoping to fatten your home equity faster, and pay off your mortgage more quickly? If this is your hope, the refinance mortgage can change you to a loan program with a shorter term, such as a 15 year loan. The monthly payments will likely be higher than with a long-term loan, but the pay-off is: that you will pay considerably less interest and will build up equity quicker. On the other hand, if your current longer term mortgage loan has a low remaining balance, and was closed a while ago, you might be able to make the move without paying more each month.
