Maybe you are not planning to stay in the house for very long, which could cost you because of the closing costs.\u00a0 Will your monthly payments actually increase? It\u2019s important to take a holistic look at the effects of shortening your term before jumping into your refinance just to shorten the term.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Cash Out Your Equity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Equity is the difference between what your house is worth and what you owe the mortgage lender.\u00a0 A home\u00a0equity\u00a0loan is a separate loan on top of your first mortgage.\u00a0 A cash-out refinance\u00a0is a replacement of your first mortgage.\u00a0 This is when you basically borrow against your equity and refinance for more than your house\u2019s current principal balance.\u00a0 Those who take out the equity in their homes typically are looking to pay for a larger ticket item such as paying down debt, home improvements, or college tuition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Although this may work great for some, many others, who once generated high-interest debt will do it again after the mortgage refinancing gives them the available credit.\u00a0 It is important to utilize your cash-out refinance appropriately so that it doesn\u2019t lead you to further financial hardship.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Convert Between <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iccu.com\/loans\/home-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Adjustable-Rate Mortgage<\/strong><\/a><strong> (ARM) and <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iccu.com\/loans\/home-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Fixed-Rate<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Mortgage<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">When choosing a home loan, buyers can typically choose from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iccu.com\/loans\/home-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">programs<\/a> that have a fixed interest rate or a variable interest rate.\u00a0 Both choices have their strengths and appeal to different types of buyers.\u00a0 A 30-year conventional mortgage is set up to have the same interest rate and the same payment for life of the loan.\u00a0 An ARM typically features lower rates for the first few years of the mortgage, but also has a rate that can change periodically depending on the terms of the loan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Converting to a fixed-rate mortgage may result in a lower interest rate as well as eliminate concern over future interest rate hikes.\u00a0 However, converting from a fixed-rate loan to an ARM can also be a sound financial strategy, particularly in a falling interest rate environment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Whatever your reason for refinancing, ICCU has a number of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iccu.com\/loans\/home-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">options<\/a> for you to choose from and an expert team to help guide you through the process.\u00a0 Please stop by any of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iccu.com\/branches-atms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">branches<\/a>\u00a0or give us a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iccu.com\/contact-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">call<\/a>\u00a0to talk about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iccu.com\/loans\/home-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">refinancing<\/a>\u00a0your home today!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As interest rates continue to stay at record lows, today might be a great time for you to consider refinancing your mortgage.
