Mortgage Refinance shouldn’t cost the earth

If you have had your property for some time and are considering a mortgage refinance, don’t be put off by all the negative publicity associated with refinancing your home loan.  If you do your homework, it is still possible to get an excellent deal with a new home loan.

While rates have gone up several times over the past 6 months,  not all lenders have passed on the same increases.

If you have a clean credit history, it is still possible to  refinance your mortgage to a rate under 6%.  Some lenders are running special offers at 5.7% and some even lower.

You do need to look at the fine print and make sure that the loan you are considering does not come with hefty penalties if you do choose to leave the lender later on.

Also one needs to consider any penalties that may be imposed by your current lender if you decide to leave.

However, in most cases it is possible to save some money with a cleaver refinance strategy and it should not cost the earth.
