Rate-Term Refinances

The most common reason to refinance your mortgage is to lower the rate or term, thus lowering your monthly payment. For instance, you could refinance get a lower interest rate than what you currently have. Make sure to use a mortgage calculator and calculate if refinancing your mortgage will actually save you in the long run. A rate-term refinance can also be used to shorten the term of your loan, such as a 30-year into a 15-year.

Cash-Out Refinances

You can also use a refinance to access the equity you have built up. For example, if your home is worth $400,000 and your current mortgage balance is $200,000, you could do a cash-out refinance of $300,000 to liquidate $100,000 out of your home's equity.

These funds can be used for any purpose, such as to consolidate debt or for a remodel.  Cash-out refinances have higher interest rates than rate-term refinances.
