Learn When To Refinance Your Mortgage

Refinancing your mortgage can be a smart financial move—but timing is everything. Learn when it makes sense to refinance, whether you're looking to lower your interest rate, reduce your monthly payments, or tap into your home’s equity.

Find the Right Time to Refinance Your Mortgage

Refinancing your mortgage can be a smart financial move, but timing is key. Kitsap Credit Union’s refinance calculator helps you evaluate whether refinancing is the right choice for you by comparing your current loan terms with potential new ones. By adjusting inputs like remaining balance, interest rate, and loan term, you can see how refinancing could impact your monthly payment and total repayment amount. This tool empowers homeowners to explore their options and make informed refinancing decisions.

Understanding the Numbers Behind Refinancing

When you refinance, you replace your existing mortgage with a new one—potentially at a lower interest rate or different loan term. This calculator breaks down the impact on your monthly payments and shows how refinancing could save you money in the short term while also highlighting the long-term costs. A lower monthly payment might offer immediate relief, but extending the loan term could mean paying more in total interest over time. Understanding these trade-offs is essential before committing to a refinance.
