Ready to Refinance your mortgage?

Watch this video to figure out if it'll be worth the money and the hassle. 

Why would you want to refinance your mortgage?

• To pay down your loan faster

Could you be a good fit for a refinance?

• Can you save more than half a percent off your current rate?
• Will you be in your home for over 3 years?

How to get quotes:

• Survey at least 3 lenders
• Look for relationship discounts
• Bring: your FICO score, your current mortgage statement, your income/W2's or tax returns, and know your current home value
• Don't let lenders pull your credit yet!

What information should you have:

• Closing costs + Fees
• Estimated new payment

Calculate how many months you need to stay in your home to recoup your costs:

• Closing costs + Fees/ New payment- Old payment
• Will you be in your home for this long?
