Second Mortgage or Refinance?
 
 

 

 

 

 

Not sure whether to go with a second mortgage or refinance? Hopefully this article will help you to clarify which option may be best for you.

Most times people obtain a second mortgage because they need a large sum of money but want to take advantage of lower interest rates than one acquires through personal loans and other forms of financing. There are times when refinancing with cash back makes more sense though, a few positive factors which leans towards refinancing are:

  • If you can refinance for 2 points less than your current rate.
  • Budget doesn't allow for the extra monthly payment incurred by a second mortgage and you can refinance at a lower rate.
  • If you're currently in an adjustable rate mortgage and you want to stabilize your interest rate but also get cash back.
  • Market forecasts are predicting interest rates to rise and you think you could refinance at a lower rate.
