Refinance Mortgage Explained
One of the primary reason for refinancing your mortgage is to take advantage of reduced
interest rates. For example, 15 years into
a 30 year mortgage, if your existing rate is 9% and the current rates are 4% you can make
large savings. You may be cautious about starting a new loan because you feel you are currently
paying the principal not the interest, however the remaining value with the lower
interest rate applied over the remaining period will mean savings, even though you will
again initially be paying interest not principal.
It is certainly true that some people with more than one mortgage, high debt or financial
problems may end up paying more if they opt for a refinance mortgage. And a homeowner who
borrowed close to 100%
of the value of the house only a year or two ago will find no real savings in refinancing,
in fact with fees and other costs he may pay more.
However this shows the importance of carefully
calculating, by yourself or with the help of an online calculator or a mortgage lender
or an advisor, exactly what the effects of a change in your finances will be. Find out,
it may be worth the effort.
