Cash-Out Refinance

What is a Cash Out Refinance?

A Cash-Out Refinance is when you use your home’s equity to refinance for more than the outstanding balance owed on your current mortgage. Then, after paying off your original mortgage, the amount left over is used to payoff your other debt or for other needs (e.g. remodel, tuition, your business, etc.)

Cash Out Refinance Features

  • A cash-out refinance is a new first mortgage, not a second lien loan such as a Home Equity loan or HELOC
  • In general, the more home equity you have, the more money your cashout refinance may provide
  • Use the extra cash as you need–consolidate debt, remodel, tuition, even buy a second home

Note: By refinancing your existing loan, your total finance charges may be higher over the life of the loan

Darren was very professional and easy to communicate with. From start to finish he had our loan closed in a couple of weeks.

From start to finish, the team was knowledgeable, responsive, and patient with all my questions. They guided me through the entire process, kept me informed every step of the way, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
