Written by Richard Wilson

Also known as a cash-out refi, this is the process of replacing or taking out an existing mortgage with a new mortgage that usually offers the borrower more beneficial terms. The process of refinancing a mortgage may aid in decreasing the mortgages monthly payments, settle on the number of years or term of a loan, negotiate a lower interest rate, if borrowers need to be removed from the loan obligation, or retrieve cash from the home equity that can then be used to invest in new opportunities.
