Mortgage refinancing tips
To be sure that it is worthwhile to refinance, you must determine if the savings in interest outweigh the fees charged by your current lender as well as your prospective lender. Refinancing may allow you to reduce the term of your mortgage, reduce your interest rate and switch to a fixed rate or a variable rate.
For Example if you currently have a 30 year mortgage of $200 000 with an interest rate of 5.5% your monthly repayments are $1128. Refinancing your mortgage to a rate of 5.2% (merely 0.03% of a difference) reduces your monthly repayments to $1091, which saves you $13115 over 30 years. Even if there are fees of $1000 and you are able to pay them upfront, this saves you $12115 over 30 years.
Taking control of your mortgage is easier than you think.
