Lafayette & West Lafayette, Indiana - Refianance Your FHA Mortgage Loan

refinance your current FHA mortgage!

If you have followed the financial or political news at all this year you are aware that the housing market has been thrown into turmoil. Lenders are going out of business right and left as well as credit is getting very tight and more difficult to obtain.

The good news is that the FHA fixed rate mortgage remains as the best loan product in the United States today. Many of you may be familiar with FHA as you currently have an FHA mortgage. For those of you who don't who may wish to refinance for any number of reasons such as shortening your term, reducing your interest rate or taking cash out of your home to pay for college, pay off debt or make home improvements - FHA is available to you too.

The advantages of the FHA mortgage are great!

  • The first feature that many of our clients have used is the streamline refinance to lower their interest rate or shorten the term of their FHA mortgage using no documentation and reduced closing costs. FHA rates are very low at the moment. If you are currently in an FHA mortgage give us a call to check your interest rate to see if you would benefit from a streamline refinance, either by reducing your rate or the term of your loan. If you can save thousands of dollars, why wouldn't you want to do so? If you are in Conventional financing or have a first and second mortgage the FHA mortgage may be an excellent way to combine both loans into one.

  • The second feature of FHA mortgages is that FHA offers a 95% cash-out feature. What this means to you is that if you have equity in your home and need to access it for any number of reasons, you can refinance it for up to 95% of the value and receive cash back. You don't need to take out a second mortgage which may have an interest rate that is variable nor do you have to worry about the ins and outs of Conventional financing and many of the costs that go along with a cash-out Conventional refinance

Looking forward to 2008 there are changes planned for the FHA program. However, these changes appear to be very positive for the consumer unlike the changes that are occurring with Conventional lending. We at Tippecanoe Mortgage can't stress enough the importance of calling today to determine if refinancing your mortgage is right for you. Interest rates on FHA loans are as low as we have seen them in several years. Let us evaluate your situation to see if refinancing your FHA mortgage makes sense.

IT IS URGENT THAT YOU ACT NOW!

INTEREST RATES ARE AS LOW AS WE HAVE SEEN THEM IN 5 YEARS!

Lafayette & West Lafayette Indiana - 5 Reasons to Refianance Your Mortgage

5 reasons to refinance your indiana mortgage

There is an old adage that says if you can improve your interest rate by at least two percentage points, then it is a good time to refinance. While that may work as a general rule of thumb, the truth is there are other reasons to refinance:

Lower your interest rate
Securing a lower interest rate is one of the top reasons for refinancing. This can make a big difference in your monthly out-of-pocket costs for housing and save money on financing fees.

Build Equity Faster
If you are in a position to make higher monthly payments due to an increase in salary or other good fortune, you may want to switch from a 30-year loan program into a 15 or 20-year loan structure. This enables you to build equity faster and save a tremendous amount of money on financing fees.

Change your loan program
Many homeowners who start with Adjustable Rate Mortgages desire to move to the stability of a Fixed Rate Mortgage later on down the road. As interest rates fluctuate, making original deals less attractive, people will change their loan programs in order to capitalize on the best rates available. We can provide you with loan comparison charts to find out what you can save with various loan programs.

Credit score has improved
If your credit score has improved as a result of making your mortgage payments on time and in full, you may be in the position to take advantage of your improved credit standing.

We can review your current credit score, the terms of your existing mortgage, and review options for other loan programs that could not only reduce your monthly payment, but also save on interest fees paid over the life of the loan.

Use the equity you have established
A cash-out refinance allows you to tap into the equity you have built up in your home. You may want to pay off revolving credit card accounts, send a child to college, or use the money for home improvements or personal expenses.

Regardless of your reasons for wanting to refinance, our team is interested in helping you make a decision that works best for you.

We will begin by reviewing the terms of your existing mortgage program. It will be important for us to know the purpose of the refinance and how long you plan to stay in the home. This helps us to determine whether or not it is beneficial for you to pay points up front to secure a lower interest rate on your new financing.

Throughout the process, we will present you with spreadsheets outlining various loan programs, and continue to monitor rates in order to inform you of the best time to refinance.
