Rate & Term
Refinance only if the structure improves.
We review payment, term, mortgage insurance, and how long you plan to keep the loan.
Break-even
Closing costs only make sense if you will be in the loan long enough.
Term choice
A lower payment can cost more interest over a longer horizon.
Keep what already works
Sometimes the current first mortgage is the better structure.
Advisor confirmation
We will say so if refinancing is not the right discussion.
