Frequently Ask Questions

You’ve got rate/term refinancing questions.
We’ve got answers.

What’s the difference between a rate/term and a cash-out refinance?

A rate/term refinance is designed to help you lower your interest rate, shorten your loan term, or both, without taking out extra cash. This type of refinance is ideal for reducing monthly payments or saving on interest over the life of your loan.‍
A cash-out refinance, on the other hand, allows you to access a portion of your home’s equity by taking out a larger loan than your current mortgage balance. You receive the difference in cash, which you can use for renovations, debt consolidation, or other expenses. While a cash-out refinance can be beneficial if you need funds, it often comes with a slightly higher interest rate compared to a rate/term refinance.

What’s the difference between 15-year and 30-year refinance rates?

Typically, 15-year refinance rates are lower than 30-year rates, allowing you to pay less interest over the life of the loan. However, 15-year terms come with higher monthly payments, which might impact your budget. A 30-year refinance offers lower monthly payments, though the total interest paid over time will be higher. Your choice depends on whether you’re looking for monthly savings or want to build equity faster.

What are the best refinance rates available today?

The best refinance rates depend on factors like your credit score, loan-to-value ratio, and current market conditions. Rates also vary between 15-year and 30-year terms, with shorter terms generally offering lower rates. Contact us to get today’s most competitive rates tailored to your profile and refinancing goals.
