Industry News

It is important that you read this information and ask the lender or broker about anything you don t understand. Sometimes, refinancing your mortgage can really save you money. A lower interest rate also may allow you to build equity in your home more quickly. Compare a home equity loan with a cash-out refinancing refinance home to see which is a better deal for you.

If you are refinancing with the same lender, ask whether the prepayment penalty can be waived. Some lenders require a complete (and more costly) survey to ensure that the house and other structures are legally where you say they are.

You can ask your lender for an estimate of the closing costs for the loan. New laws have been implemented by the federal government mandating that all brokers have set pricing with the lenders they do business with.
