Frequently Asked Questions

When should I refinance?

Generally, refinancing makes sense if you can lower your rate by 0.5-1% or more, plan to stay in the home past the break-even point, and closing costs are reasonable.

What is the break-even point?

The break-even point is when your monthly savings equal the closing costs. After this point, you're saving money by refinancing.

What are typical closing costs?

Closing costs typically range from 2-5% of the loan amount, including appraisal, title insurance, and lender fees.
