Mortgage Refinancing Help
: Business: Aerospace and Defense
: Defense (518)
 Be specific about the loan you want. The more precise you are, the easier it will be for a loan officer or mortgage broker to find the best rate. For example, do you want a 15-year or 30-year mortgage? Do you need a "jumbo" mortgage (more than $333,700)? Are you willing to pay points to reduce the interest rate? The answers to these questions will depend on several factors, including when you plan to sell the house and how soon you want to retire your debt. Only you know the answers, but the sooner you know them, the better.

 It is feasible to go for a refinance when you have built up at least 10% equity in your home (For Fannie Mae owned mortgages, the value is 5%). It is also possible for you to choose the option if your equity is less than 5%, but you may have to pay a certain amount of cash in order to make up for the difference in equity.
Be Prepared. You'll probably be asked for more information and documentation after you submit your application, but before your loan is approved be prepared to document your income and assets. Answer any questions and fax documentation to your loan representative as soon as possible.
Closing costs can be expensive. If you plan on refinancing your home to save money, be sure to take into consideration how much the closing costs on the new loan will cost you.
If your property value reduces and you refinance up to 80% of the reappraised value, your original mortgage amount may be higher than this amount. Thus, the new loan will not be sufficient enough to help you pay down the existing one.
