Broker Tip:

"Don't wait for the 'perfect' rate. If you can save $200+ a month now, start the process. You can always refinance again if rates drop further later."

LTV Thresholds

For a primary residence, you can refinance up to 95% of your home's value for rate-and-term, or 80% for a Texas Cash-Out.

Seasoning Requirements

Most programs require you to be in your current loan for at least 6 months.

Appraisal Options

Depending on your data and equity, we can often secure 'Appraisal Waivers,' saving you $600+.
