Refinance

A refinance should pay for itself. Terry will show you whether it does.

Overview

How Terry approaches it.

A rate-and-term refinance can lower your payment, shorten your term, or move you from an adjustable rate to a fixed one. Every option comes with closing costs, so the real question is how long it takes to break even.

Terry runs the break-even math before recommending anything, and if the numbers do not work yet, he will tell you and keep an eye on the market for you.
