As a homeowner, you likely already know all of the ins and outs of your mortgage. Between monthly payments, escrow, insurance, and more, there are a lot of numbers flying around. But did you know that by refinancing your home, you could actually be saving money in the long run? Let Luminate Home Loans guide you through the process and see if refinancing is right for you.
If you’ve owned your home for a few years and have equity on the mortgage, you’re in good shape to refinance. Why? Because when you have equity—which is the value of your home minus what you owe on the house—you can use that to shuffle around your finances to better suit your needs. Here are just a few ways refinancing your home can help.
Did you purchase your home at a higher interest rate? If interest rates are lower now, you may be able to refinance and lower how much you owe over the long term. You could save thousands of dollars with a lower interest rate!
If you purchased your home with a 30-year mortgage, that’s okay and completely normal! But refinancing your home with its equity can sometimes shorten the length of time it will take to pay off your home and save you money in the long run.
Has your roof been needing repairs? Or maybe you’ve been wanting to save up funds to put in a deck? No matter the project, refinancing can allow you to take out cash from your equity and use it for various home improvements.
Student loans? Credit cards? Car payments? If any or all of these sound familiar, you’ll be excited to know that you may be able to consolidate that debt into your mortgage, paying less in interest, and making your monthly payments much easier to manage.
As we’ve highlighted above, there are a lot of benefits to refinancing your home. If you’re asking yourself questions like, “Is now the right time to refinance?”, “When should I refinance my home?”, or “Will refinancing save me money?” it may be time to talk to one of our loan officers here at Luminate.
