WHY CASH-OUT REFINANCE
Key Benefits of Cash-Out Refinance
A cash-out refinance offers flexibility and control over your finances by unlocking the equity in your home — whether you're paying off debt, renovating, or investing.
HOW IT WORKS
How Does a Cash-Out Refinance Work?
A cash-out refinance replaces your existing mortgage with a new one that's larger than your current balance. The difference between the old and new loan is given to you as cash — which you can use however you choose.
You'll continue making payments on the new mortgage, similar to your original loan. The key difference is that you walk away from closing with a lump sum of cash based on the equity you've built.
This option works best when you have significant home equity and a clear plan for how you'll use the funds.
EXAMPLE
If your home is valued at $400,000 and your current mortgage balance is $100,000, you may be able to refinance up to 80% of your home's value — up to $320,000. After paying off your current mortgage, you could receive $220,000 in cash to use as needed.
