Rates
Your interest rate is perhaps the most important factor of your loan and can often decide whether or not you will be happy with your loan in the long run. Current interest rates are widely considered to be remarkably low and locking in a low interest rate can save you money.

Mortgage Calc
Primarily, a mortgage calc gives you your expected monthly payment, but it also shows you how a slight change can affect the repayment of your loan. A loan of $150,000 with a term of 30 years and an interest rate of 7% will have a monthly payment of $997. The calculator may also tell you that the total interest on such a loan would be $209,263. However, if you change the interest rate to 8%, the monthly payment increases to $1,100 and the interest increases to $246,232. This would mean that 1% made a difference of $103 every month for thirty years and a total of nearly $37,000 in payment of interest. Small changes in loan terms can add up, which is an especially important consideration for anyone looking in to refinancing.

Mortgage Refiancing
Mortgage refinancing is the repayment of a current mortgage using a new mortgage. This new mortgage should have an interest rate at least 2% lower than the original rate or else it may not be worthwhile for the homeowner. By obtaining a loan with a lower interest rate, you should be able to save hundreds, if not thousands the time your loan is paid off.

Refinancing Your Home

- Plans to remain at his or her home for the next three years
- Would like to change an adjustable rate mortgage or establish a lower rate
cap
- Has not damaged your credit since your original loan
- Wants to take advantage of lower interest rates
- Needs money for home repairs or improvement
