 When refinancing, don't take the first offer that comes around. Instead you should actively compare both interest rates and lenders.

 If you plan on moving out of your existing home within the next few years, it may not be beneficial for you to refinance. Make sure you let your mortgage specialist know your future plans.
If there is a big difference between the initial interest rate and the APR listed in the ad, it may mean that there are high fees associated with the loan.
Many financial advisers caution against cash-out refinancing to pay down unsecured debt (such as credit cards) or short-term secured debt (such as car loans). You may want to talk with a trusted financial adviser before you choose cash-out refinancing as a debt-consolidation plan.
You can also save money on your mortgage refinancing by paying "points." This is a fee that effectively lowers the interest rate of your loan. If you plan on staying in your home for a long time, this long-term strategy can be an excellent way to save thousands of dollars.
