Is now a good time to refinance? We asked the best in the biz!
Aaron Nawrocki with Capital M Lending is a master at his craft and we’ve been working with him since the inception of our business. Aaron can be reached at 503-445-9525, or email him at aaron@capitalmlending.com.
Here is what Aaron has to say:
“I’d say just that if you’re paying over 4.25% in interest, it would be good to reach out to your lender of choice and have him/her run numbers to see what the monthly savings and one-time costs would be. It’s worth looking at for sure.”
Hillary Seiler with Umpqua Bank is our go to for ADU construction, new builds, and home remodels. She is very creative and will work hard for you. Hillary can be reached at 503-804-4460, or email her at hillaryseiler@umpquabank.com.
Here is what Hillary has to say:
“Now is a great time to look into your refinance options. The Federal Reserve has lowered their lending rate to banks which in turn lowered mortgage rates again! The rates range in the low to mid 3’s (changing daily). If you are interested in refinancing to lower your payment, cash-out on your existing equity to do a renovation, home project or simply pay down debt, now is a great time to look at your options and see what might work for you.”
Steph Noble with Guild Mortgage is beloved by many customers and real estate agents alike. She is a frequent speaker at real estate sales meetings and educates us on mortgage market. Steph can be reached at (503) 528-9800, or email her atsnoble@guildmortgage.net.
Here is what Steph has to say:
“I do think refinancing now is a great option. There are a couple of benefits depending on each situation.
A new 30 year fixed rate loan can reduce monthly payments and help any homeowners who want to ensure monthly obligations are as low as possible. Especially important if they forsee any changes to income or employment due to COVID19.
For homeowners without concerns related to income and employment I’m LOVING the 20 year loan. The rates on that have been about the same (and in some cases LOWER) than the 15 year loan. Most clients I’ve worked with have an increase in payment that is manageable and yet the interest savings are massive.
Lastly – refinancing now to get cash out for home improvements or to pay off other debt is another sweet spot for some clients. There are several peeps I’ve been working with who have projects in mind for after COVID19 restrictions are lifted. They are getting the funds they need now for their project since the rates are low.”
