A Rare Opportunity for Homeowners May DisappearA nationwide trend has seen home values skyrocket over the last two years. At the same time, interest rates have been trending in the opposite direction, with historically low rates making cash “cheap” for those who need it. If you’re a homeowner, you’re now in a position to take advantage of these economic facts. How? Through a cash-out refinance! |
A cash-out refinance allows you to access the equity in your home as cash. That’s the same equity that may have seen a massive boost as the value of your home increased. And because interest rates are so low, you can expect to save on the long-term costs compared to just a few years ago.
You’ve worked hard to build up your home’s equity. Getting a cash-out refinance means that you can use it to:
- Pay for home improvement projects or remains
- Cover higher education costs for your children
- Fund high-return retirement accounts
- Diversify into other investments like real estate
- Consolidate high-interest debt
Both the rise in home values and low rates are unlikely to stay. In fact, interest rates may begin to rise in response to inflation. That makes now the right time to refinance. Mortgage lending is a hedge against inflation. No matter what the dollar is worth, a mortgage payment is set for the long-term.
A cash-out refinance can help position you for future financial success, and now is the time to do it. To learn more, contact me today!
