| Mortgage Refinancing If your current mortgage has a high interest rate, you’re stuck in an adjustable rate mortgage, or you want cash out or to consolidate your debt, the answer to your mortgage problems is refinancing. Mortgage refinancing allows you to pay off the remainder of your existing loan by taking on a new loan with better terms. However, there are a number of mortgage refinancing options available to you. And within each of these options, there are particulars you need to be aware of. |

Since the beginning of 2009, the Obama administration has been reducing interest rates on Home Mortgage Refinance, but these programs are now being phased out. Loans backed by the government currently carry interest rates between 5.25 and 6.0, but are projected to go up significantly. However, to compensate for this, President Obama and his economic advisors recently announced the ‘Making Home Affordable’ plan, specifically designed for distressed homeowners. The 2008-09 finance bills passed by Congress are further backed by this plan. Home Refinance Programs backed by the government are often the last and only option available to homeowners fighting to protect their property from foreclosure, or those with a credit score of 700 or below and having less than 25% home equity left.
Homes with Equity Homeowners availing of the FHA loan assistance can get a loan at a fixed interest rate. The amount of this loan can vary but most homeowners can get about 97% of the currently appraised cost of the property. However, those homeowners who participate in the ‘Making Home Affordable’ plan can now avail of government home refinance up to 105% of the current appraised cost of their home. This government Mortgage Refinance Program has the potential to save homeowners thousands of dollars in mortgage payments. Another advantage of participating in this program is the low Home Refinance Rates of interest, which remain stable throughout the entire term of the mortgage. Another point to be kept in mind is that home prices in the US have been falling and are projected to do so for quite a while. If your home still has some equity left and carries an adjustable mortgage interest rate, you should opt for the thirty-year fixed rate loan guaranteed by the government immediately instead of waiting until your equity drops. If you are a distressed homeowner and fulfill the FHA requirements, contact us today to get a government-backed Refinance Home Mortgage. |

President Obama recently announced updates to his Homeowner Affordability and Stability/ Making Home Affordable Plan. This plan is in addition to the finance bills passed by the US congress in 2008 and early 2009. The new laws and plans include stipulations should make it easier to refinance mortgages to the historically low interest rates we have been seeing since 2009. These new government-backed loans are the best and often only refinance option available for homeowners facing difficulties due to rising interest rates and increasing payments. Government-backed mortgages are also often the only viable refinance option for homeowners with credit scores below 700 or with less than 25% equity left in their home.
