Refinancing Home Loans
The best time to refinance is usually when interest rates are 2% less than the rates used to close your loan. Even if rates are slightly less than 2%, 1.5% for example, a homeowner can still save but it would take a longer period of time for those savings to materialize.

Home Construction Loans
Home construction loans are unique because they are often considered two loans, one for construction and one for permanent financing. However, a Construction-to-Permanent loan or a One-Time-Close loan combines the two, making the loan process simpler and less expensive for the borrower. Combining the construction financing and loan amount reduces the cost to the borrower by eliminating a second set of closing costs, as well as the requalifying process.

Mortgage Calc
A mortgage calc can also show you the difference that the term of your loan makes on your repayment schedule. A $997 monthly payment on a $150,000 loan at 7% over the period of 30 years with $209,263 in total interest may sound acceptable, but using the calculator you can compare this monthly payment to what would be paid on a shorter term loan. The same loan with a 15 year term would have higher monthly payment of 1,348, which is $351 more. However, the 15 year term would cut the total interest in half to the amount of 92,683. In this case, cutting your loan term in half and paying $351 more a month could save you over $100,000.

Mortgage Refiancing
Also, homeowners with an adjustable rate mortgage can use refinancing as an opportunity to switch to a fixed rate. If you are uncomfortable with the risk of an adjustable rate and want to get a loan with a fixed rate while interest rates are low, refinancing your mortgage now would give you a great opportunity to do so.
