Frequently Asked Questions

When should I refinance my mortgage?

Consider refinancing when current rates are at least 0.75-1% below your existing rate, you plan to stay in your home long enough to recoup closing costs (usually 2-4 years), or you want to switch from an ARM to a fixed-rate loan.

What does it cost to refinance?

Refinancing typically costs 2-5% of the loan amount in closing costs. On a $300,000 loan, expect $6,000-15,000. Some lenders offer no-closing-cost refinances with a slightly higher rate.

Can I refinance with bad credit?

FHA Streamline refinances require minimal credit checks for existing FHA borrowers. Conventional refinances generally need a credit score of at least 620, with better rates at 740+.

How long does refinancing take?

A typical refinance takes 30-45 days from application to closing. Cash-out refinances may take longer due to additional appraisal and underwriting requirements.
