What does refinancing your home loan actually mean, what are the benefits, when should you refinance, and how can you do it?
Refinancing your home loan is when you take out a new home loan to pay off your existing mortgage.
Why take out a new home loan to simply cover the costs of an old one, you might ask?
Our personal and financial circumstances are always changing. Refinancing your home loan is a great way to achieve your lifestyle goals, take advantage of market leading rates, and better manage your finances.
Some of the moments when you might want to consider refinancing:
- A significant shift in life priorities, like starting or growing your family, changes to your employment, or even purchasing an investment property
- You’re looking to renovate or extend your current home
- The end of the fixed term rate for your current mortgage
- Simplify your finances by consolidating other repayments and debts
- To secure a better deal by reviewing other options on the market
