Refinance Tips

  • 0.5% rule: Generally worth it if rate drops by at least 0.5%
  • Break-even: Make sure you'll stay long enough to recoup closing costs
  • Shop around: Compare rates from 3-5 lenders
  • Credit score: 740+ gets best rates
  • Avoid cash-out: Unless necessary - keeps LTV low and rates better
  • Time it right: Lock rate when favorable, close before rate increases
