In speaking with homeowners, I often hear their interest in refinancing as an option however are unaware of other options available to them.

HELOC:

A separate, second loan that typically has two phases: a draw period (usually 10–15 years) where you can borrow and only pay interest on what you use followed by a repayment period.

How you get the money:
Revolving line of credit.

💰Interest Rates: Usually variable.

💵Closing Costs: Low or zero.

✅Pros: Ideal for ongoing projects including renovations.
Only pay for what you borrow.
Keep the favorable rate on your first mortgage.

❌Cons: Variable rates mean your monthly payments can increase.

💡When to choose: You don't know the exact amount of money you will need upfront or want the flexibility to draw and repay funds over time.

Cash-Out Refinance:

Pays off your current mortgage and replaces it with a new one that is larger than what you owe, allowing you to pocket the difference.

How you get the money: One-time lump sum at closing.

💰Interest Rates: Often fixed.

💵Closing Costs: High, typically 3%–6% of the loan amount.

✅Pros: Fixed, predictable monthly payments and one single loan to manage.

❌Cons: You pay interest on the entire lump sum immediately, and you will have to reset your mortgage terms.

💡When to choose: You need a large sum immediately for things like debt consolidation, want to lock in a fixed rate, and current market rates are favorable.

If you want more information or are interested in either products contact your local mortgage lender.
