Refinancing Home Loans
Also, homeowners who are interested in any of the above reasons and would also like money for debt consolidation, home improvement or large purchases can refinance for the total of their original loan as well as substantial amount over that total. This is often referred to as a cash-out refinance. This type of refinancing is excellent for paying off debt that has been incurred on loans or credit cards with high interest rates.

Imperfect Credit
Securing your mortgage with a home or expensive automobile is another way for someone with bad credit to receive a loan with low interest rates and a lower down payment. Secured loans allow lenders to lend larger amounts at lower rates and often allows them to over look certain mistakes on your credit history.

Home Construction Loans
Home construction loans are unique because they are often considered two loans, one for construction and one for permanent financing. However, a Construction-to-Permanent loan or a One-Time-Close loan combines the two, making the loan process simpler and less expensive for the borrower. Combining the construction financing and loan amount reduces the cost to the borrower by eliminating a second set of closing costs, as well as the requalifying process.

Rates
There are several indexes on which interest rates are based:
- The Prime Rate is used by lenders for corporations and for their credit-worthy
applicants. It is very stable and tends not to differ from bank to bank. The
Prime Rate is used to predict the direction of rates, and the activity of
consumer loans often follows that of this index.
- U.S. Treasury Security Yields is an average of monthly rates during the
length of a one year U.S. Treasury security that is often used to set adjustable
rate mortgage and is published yearly by the Federal Reserve Board.
- The 11th District Cost of Funds is also used to set adjustable rate mortgages
and will often follow the same direction as the average of a one-year U.S.
Treasury security. Monthly, the 11th Federal Home Loan Bank District, which
includes California, Nevada and Arizona, publishes its weighted average interest
rate for the prior month.
- Federal Funds Rate is set by the Federal Open Market Committee and is the
interest rate on funds one bank lends to another overnight. This index affects
inflation and economic growth, and is decided on by the Federal Open Market
Committee.

Mortgage Calc
The numbers determined by a mortgage calc should be considered estimates and should be used as a tool in preparation for obtaining a loan, not as a primary resource for the repayment of your loan. Lenders will provide information on the amortization of your loan. Small discrepancies between the information given by a mortgage calc and that given by a lender can often be attributed to the differences in how fractions of a penny are processed by both parties.
Research and planning can help you find the mortgage that really suits you. Apply online to contact lenders about your mortgage or use our mortgage calc to find out more about your mortgage terms.
