Here are some more great reasons

1. Lower your Rate and Monthly Payment

This is one of the most common reasons for a home mortgage refinance. If your current interest rate is higher than what is currently available in the market, it is probably a good idea to see how much you could save by refinancing. There are no-cost and low-cost options that could save you money with little to no investment.

2. Take Cash Out – to consolidate your debt

Leveraging the equity in your home is one of the smartest ways you can make your money can work for you. Use the cash from your home to pay off higher interest, non tax-deductible credit cards, student loans, or medical bills. By consolidating your debts, you can enjoy the benefit of having only one payment each month, and in most cases your overall monthly outflow decreases.

3. Take Cash Out – for home improvements

What better way to use your hard earned equity than to invest it back into your home with repairs or home improvements? Whether you would like to fix your leaky roof or update your kitchen, you can tap into your home’s equity and have a tax deductible* way to tackle your projects. *consult with your tax advisor

4. Take Cash Out – to purchase investment property

With home prices and interest rates at the lowest they’ve been in years, if you’ve been thinking about buying a vacation home or an investment property, now may be a great time to take action. Tap into your home’s equity and use the cash for your down payment, home improvements, or for any reason at all.

5. Remove Mortgage Insurance

If you purchased your home with less than 20% down, chances are you’re paying private mortgage insurance (pmi). Refinancing will help you eliminate the extra expense if you’ve paid down your loan balance and/or have seen an increase in your home’s value to a point where you have at least 20% equity in your home

6. Shorten Your Mortgage term

Sometimes plans change and the home (and loan) that you thought you were going to have for awhile turns from a permanent situation into a temporary one. If you are planning to sell your home sooner than you thought and no longer need a long-term rate, then you may consider converting your 30 year fixed to either an ARM or a 3/1, 5/1, or 7/1 loan program, which often have lower rates and payments.

7. Convert your Adjustable Rate Loan into a Fixed Rate Loan

Adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) loans are a great way to ease into your mortgage payments, especially if you are a first time buyer or if you need lower payments initially. Eventually, if you decide you will stay in your home longer, you may want to consider refinancing your mortgage into a long term fixed rate loan. Doing so will give you peace of mind, knowing that your rate and payment will not change for a set period of time.

8. Refinance your Interest-Only loan into a Fully-Amortized Loan

Like ARMs, interest-only loans are a great way to minimize your mortgage payments at the beginning; however, because you are not paying any principal, your loan balance does not decrease. If you plan to keep your home long term, refinancing can help start paying off your loan. Often, you can refinance your interest-only loan to a 30 year fixed rate loan while keeping your payments about the same.

Throughout the entire process of purchasing my first home, Michael gave me the kind of service and guidance that made me feel as though my needs were his highest priority, and sometimes even his only priority. I certainly felt as though Michael made a significant effort to establish trust and a personal rapport with me, which is critically important for me when dealing in financial matters. As it relates to knowledge of the industry and available products, Michael's level of expertise is yet another reason to feel as though your needs are in the best hands. I have already recommended Michael to three people, and plan to continue doing so whenever a friend, colleague, or family member is considering buying a home or refinancing.

I have dealt with Michael Minkoff in the past. And I found him to be every professional, honest and very forthcoming. This is my third opportunity to have dealt with him on the purchase of Homes and condominiums. And Michael has never disappointed me in any way, during the procedures and purchases of any properties. Over the years I have thought of Michael as more of a friend than a business acquaintance. Michael performs his task over and above its competitors with ease. You guys have a real gem on your hands... Michael Minkoff THE BEST definitely 5 stars.

I can honestly say Michael Minkoff made my first home buying experience a very pleasant one. From our first conversation he explained each and every option that was available to me and I never felt pressured into any decision. My phone call and email communications were handled in a professional and timely manner. All in all I really couldn't imagine my home buying process being any easier. Even now that the deal is done I would still feel 100% comfortable calling Michael with any questions. He extended his expertise beyond the scope of the business deal and I look forward to contacting Michael for my next home purchase. Thanks for everything Michael! Our hats off to you!!

My wife and I have bought two homes in the last 4 years and have used Michael services each time. He is quick to give you the information you need to make an informed decision. His knowledge of the market is truly exceptional! He is on your side with the banks and always gives you best deal you qualify for.

My fiance and I purchased our first home last year and we didn’t understand anything about the mortgage process. We met with one broker and we were still confused. We were advised to meet with Michael Minkoff. Michael is extremely knowledgeable and attentive which made both of us feel so comfortable. Everything went so smoothly, and he locked us in at the lowest possible interest rate. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Shoreline Mortgage made us feel like we were one of their top clients.

I have worked with Michael twice and he is a true professional. He takes the time to ensure that his clients understand the entire process of closing on a  mortgage and is always willing to explain things until the client is comfortable. Patient, kind and understanding - Michael is exactly the type of person you want working on your behalf. I would never work with anyone else!

We were looking at so many options for our Refi – 15  Year vs. 30 Year, combining two mortgages into one. We tried working with our bank, but became very frustrated at the inflexibility. We decide to talk to Michael because he had helped us so much with our first mortgage almost 10 years ago. Michael gave us the pros and cons of every option we discussed, and was always  open to running multiple scenarios for us. When we  finally chose the right financing plan for our needs, Michael guided us through every step of the way.

Our particular residential situation was unusually complicated because we had to choose loan size/package, we have multiple rental properties with mortgages and have multiple income streams not dominated by traditional employment. Michael Minkoff was extremely effective at helping us navigate through all of this complexity in a very organized, helpful fashion to an excellent financial and personal conclusion. Thank you, Michael.

Our friends recommended Michael Minkoff to help us secure a mortgage. It's our first house so we never had any experience with the loan process. From the very first phone call I knew we were in the best hands possible!! Michael took the time and explained very clearly about the different options. He took care of every single detail and went above and beyond to bring us to closing in less than one month. During the loan process, he guided us in a very professional manner and kept us updated on the progress.
The whole process was very quick and smooth and we felt very comfortable throughout it. It was a true pleasure to work with Michael!! I'm sure we will work with him again in the future and will highly recommend him for others. Thank you Michael, you are the best!!

Michael Minkoff was great. He worked through all the different ways we could structure our loan and helped us find the one that was absolutely best for our situation. I really appreciated how quick he was to respond to us throughout the process and yet I never felt rushed, as he made sure we understood everything happening throughout the process. I have been and will continue to recommended him to others I know looking for a mortgage.
