Cash-Out Refinance
Depending on how long ago you bought your home, its value has very likely increased. It may have increased a lot. Hold that thought, and consider this: If you need money for something important, like educational expenses, paying down higher interest rate debt, or making home improvements, where will you get it?
Credit cards and personal loans are two options, but the interest rates are high. Could your home be the solution? Yes. You may be living in the answer to your financial needs.
What is a cash-out refinance?
When you refinance, you replace your current mortgage with a new one. People often refinance for a lower mortgage interest rate or a shorter loan term. These mortgages are referred to as rate and term refinances, and are for the same amount as your current home loan.
A cash-out refinance, on the other hand, is exactly what it sounds like. You refinance for a larger amount and take out the difference in cash. The key is you must have enough home equity to access as the source of that money. What’s equity? It’s the difference between what you owe on your current mortgage and your home’s appraised value. You gain equity every time you make a mortgage payment (assuming you don’t have an interest-only loan), and when home values rise in your area.
