Cash-In Refinance

Cash-In Refinancing Could Help Home-Owners Save Big

For a long time Cash-out refinancing has been a popular way for a homeowner to tap the equity they have in their home when refinancing. During the time when home values were rapidly escalating, cash-out refinancing made sense for many people.

Times have changed, and cash-in refinancing has become more prevalent. Cash-in refinancing is when a borrower brings cash to their refinancing in order to reduce the amount they owe on their mortgage for a variety of reasons. As home values have dipped and people have lost equity in their homes it has become a more and more widespread, especially amongst those who will be staying in their home for the long term, those with adjustable rate mortgages that will adjust to a less favorable rate, and those who cannot qualify for refinancing due to lack of equity.

Reasons for Cash-in Refinancing:

  • In order to improve the borrower's debt-to-income ratio to qualify for refinancing
  • To improve the borrower's loan-to-value (LTV) ratio in order to avoid paying for private mortgage insurance
  • To improve the borrower's LTV ratio in order to qualify for a government refinancing program such as the Homeowner Affordability Refinance Program
  • It can be a good investment vehicle in a low interest rate economic climate
