Refinancing - Q & A
Q:
When is the best time to refinance?
A: The traditional answer to that
question is when interest rates fall 2 percent below your current
mortgage interest rate. However, in recent years some experts have
argued that refinancing may be appropriate with a smaller point
spread.
Some weight is often given to the length of time the owner anticipates
holding on to the property. If the owner expects to keep the property
for at least three or four years, then refinancing may be worthwhile.
While refinancing can involve upfront costs,
in many cases it is possible to roll the costs of the refinancing
into the new note and still reduce the amount of the monthly payment.
Q: Where do I get
information on refinancing?
A: For information on refinancing,
the following booklet may be helpful:
* "A Consumer's Guide to Mortgage Refinancings;" Federal
Reserve Bank of San Francisco, Public Information Department, P.O.
Box 7702, San Francisco, CA 94120; call (415) 974-2163 to order.
Q: Can I refinance
after bankruptcy?
A: Refinancing may be prudent but
could be difficult after a bankruptcy. If you're considering bankruptcy,
you may want to go to your current lender first and explain the
situation. If you have been current on your payments, the lender
may be accommodating and refinance your loan, easing your financial
situation.
