Wondering when the best time is to refinance your home? There are many factors to consider when deciding if refinancing is best for you. Whether it’s the time of year or the stage of your home ownership, refinancing could be beneficial. I joined THV11’s Tom Brannon to talk about why you should consider refinancing your home before this summer season.
The Mortgage Statement
Our mortgage rates are continuing to remain stable through the month of January, even with the national averages rising. Be sure you get the best rate you can while our rates are still low.

Rates are still at the same low level as they were last week, so they are standing firm at their historic-low records.

Is Now the Right Time For Refinancing Your Home?
With mortgage rates at an all-time low, now may be a great time for a mortgage refinance. By refinancing your home, you might find a better interest rate or get out of an upwardly adjustable rate loan. And mortgage rates may stay low, because the Federal government wants to keep money flowing to try to stimulate the economy. How long is, of course, not guaranteed.
