Refinance

When you need to refinance, Loan Allies will show you the way.

What Does it Mean to Refinance?

Refinancing means replacing an existing loan with a new one. Before you refinance a home, it’s important to understand the process, to know what questions to ask, to research refinancing options, and to understand how refinancing would benefit you. At Loan Allies, we will help and inform you through each of these steps in the process.

No cost and low cost refinance options are available.

Why Do People Refinance?

Refinancing is a great tool that helps homeowners pursue goals and improve their finances. Refinancing can be done anytime during the life of your loan, so don’t hesitate to research your options.

Lower Rates and Monthly Payments

If your interest rate is higher than the average market rate, refinancing might be a good option for you. A lower interest rate would decrease your monthly payment.

Switch Adjustable Rate Mortgage to Fixed Rate

An adjustable rate mortgage loan can be a great tool for first time home buyers, but over time, it could cost more. Switching to a fixed rate mortgage can alleviate stress and uncertainty, since your interest rate will be locked.

Switch Interest-Only to Fully-Amortizing

An interest-only loan can help keep your payments low in the beginning, but you aren’t paying down your principal balance. Refinancing can help you start paying off your loan, often without a drastic change in payments.

Consolidate High-Interest Debt

Enjoy the freedom of having a single bill per month by consolidating your debt into a home equity loan. You can use the cash from the loan to pay off high interest debt, saving you money in the long term.

Home Improvements

Using home equity to improve your home is a great way to make your money work for you. Whether you need a new deck, want to install new flooring, or you’re ready to build that dream kitchen you’ve always wanted, refinancing can get you where you want to be.

Investment Property

Leveraging your home equity to purchase an investment property is another great way to make your money work for you. Whether you want to purchase a retirement home, a beach house, or a rental, refinancing can help you achieve your goal.

Remove MIP ( Mortgage Insurance Premium)

If you purchased your home with a FHA loan and less than 10% down, you’re paying MIP. If you have at least 10% in home equity, you can refinance to remove that extra fee you’re paying on a monthly basis.

    After applying for your mortgage, you’ll receive your loan estimate. This document explains your estimated interest rate, monthly payment, closing costs for your loan, and other important loan details

    9. Initial Approval

    If you meet the initial requirements, the lender will issue a conditional approval, which means you’re approved as long as you provide further requested documentation. We will work with you to gather any documents requested from third parties on your behalf and explain which documents are required to be provided by you and how to acquire them.

  • \

    10. Appraisal

    The property will need to be appraised to assess its current value. We will order the appraisal through a third party. Once the appraisal is ordered you will receive a link via email to pay for the appraisal; after the payment is made the assigned appraiser will reach out to you in order to schedule a time and gain access to the property to conduct the appraisal.

  • \

    11. Closing Disclosure

    The Closing Disclosure will be provided to you about three business days before closing or even prior. It gives you final details about your refinanced loan, including loan terms, your estimated monthly payments, and other important loan terms.

    You’re in the home stretch! The underwriter will issue a final approval, which means were cleared and ready to close.
