You might consider refinancing your mortgage for
several reasons:
 If you're dazzled by new
low interest rates and dream of reducing your monthly mortgage payments,
if you foresee a major expense, or if you simply want to pay down credit
card debts with a better interest rate, you might just get what you wish
for. In matters of real estate, there's rarely a quick and easy formula
for all, but the profiles below will help you pinpoint your refinancing
options. Some of the primary reasons for refinancing are to lower
monthly payments, pay off a loan or build equity faster, convert an
adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) into a fixed-rate mortgage, or change
other loan terms.
Get a lower interest rate. Generally, this is the reason most
people refinance their mortgage. Interest rates may have fallen since
you financed your home. By refinancing your mortgage at a lower rate,
you will pay less interest over the life of your loan.
Lower your monthly payment amount. There are two ways to lower
your monthly payment. If current interest rates are comparable to your
existing rate, you can refinance and lower your mortgage payments by
extending the term of your mortgage. If interest rates drop, you can
refinance with your existing term, but at a lower rate. This will also
lower your monthly payment amount.
Convert to a fixed interest rate. You may have an
adjustable-rate mortgage and want to switch to a fixed rate for a
consistent mortgage payment each month.
Reduce your loan term. By reducing your loan term and
increasing your payment amount, you build equity more quickly and may
save thousands of dollars over the life of your loan.
Cash out your equity. Mortgage interest rates are often lower
than consumer loans, resulting in a lower monthly payment. In addition,
the interest you pay on a mortgage may be tax deductible. You can use
the equity you have accumulated in your home for debt consolidation ,
home improvements, a new car, educational expenses or other financial
needs.
