Should I Refinance Calculator

This calculator will help you to decide whether or not you should refinance your current mortgage at a lower interest rate. Not only will this calculator calculate the monthly payment and net interest savings, but it will also calculate how many months it will take to break even on the closing costs.

Keep in mind you can save extra money by including other debt, like credit card debt.  You can usually take cash out up to 85% of the value of your home on a low rate first mortgage.  Click here for the debt consolidation mortgage calculator.
