Q&A: Need name of decent mortgage company for refinancing. Credit not perfect.?

Question by taboobiker73: Need name of decent mortgage company for refinancing. Credit not perfect.?
We will need to refinance our mortgage loan in less than a year. Our credit rating is lower right now due to medical bills which we are in the process of trying to pay off. It seems that a lot of these companies are just out to make as much money as possible off of you using your credit rating as an excuse. We were rushed through buying our house by the owner and we are not to happy with the terms of our mortgage at the end of the second year.

Can a person on the title but not the mortgage stop me from refinancing?

Question by : Can a person on the title but not the mortgage stop me from refinancing?
I have a loan contract with a person on the title (individual property grant deed) in which the contract for the loan “shall continue until the property is sold”. Even though I am not selling the property, I have offered a buyout amount for his 10% share and he is threatening to block any refinancing unless I meet his demand for a buyout amount. We differ on the appraisal amount of the property. My appraiser was approved by my lender and is a Certified Residential Real Estate Appraiser in California and I have no idea if or what type of appraiser he used. Can he do this even if he is not and will not be on the original mortgage or the refinanced mortgage? Would it be better to rescind the offer and just wait to pay him when I sell at a later date? Please let me know if you have any ideas on how to handle this situation.

I’m looking to refinance for debt consolidation. Is it better to refi my first mortgage which is at 5.625% or obtain a second mortgage?

Depends on how many years you have left on your mortgage.

You have a good rate. Second mortgages usually have very high rates. Have you considered an equity line?

refinance mortgage offers, “no costs to you” are these legit?

Question by honeybaby729: refinance mortgage offers, “no costs to you” are these legit?
I need to refinance my mortgage very soon. For the past 6 or so plus months my mail has been flooded daily with offers from various mortgage brokers or lenders offering me a deal of a lifetime. Many say they are offering me refinancing at no cost to me. This sounds a bit fishy, I doubt anyone is willing to help me at no costs. Is there any truths to these offers? I don’t want to waste time contacting these companies and filling out applications if they are not true. Any thoughts? Thanks !

Answer by shamieya
It is legit, there may be no out of pocket costs to you if your broker will be making a nice profit off of your refinance- they will pay for stuff themselves. there will always be fees though.

Refinancing Mortgage, length?

Question by J B: Refinancing Mortgage, length?
I am 10 years into a 30 year mortgage, ie, I have 20 years to go to have it paid off.

If i refinance, does the new load i get have to be either 30 years, or 15 years???? Can i have it set up so that i still finish paying off my house 20 years from now?

Best answer:

Answer by bud68
If you refi, your term starts anew – it can be 15 year, 20 year, whatever the lender offers. The old loan term has nothing to do with it.

How can I find out when mortgage rates are at a level that would make refinancing my condo more affordable?

Question by elishayden: How can I find out when mortgage rates are at a level that would make refinancing my condo more affordable?

Best answer:

Answer by chatsplas
There are many online calculators to figure this out
Rule of Thumb is that there needs to be 2 points difference in rate and you must keep home 5-10 years AFTER refinancing for this to make sense
There are COSTS to refi, and it takes time to recoup the costs, BEFORE you start seeing any savings or benefits
