FAQ
What is a refinance break-even point?
It is how long it takes for your monthly savings to repay the closing costs. After that point, the refinance starts putting money in your pocket.
Why do closing costs matter?
Even a lower rate costs money upfront (fees, appraisal, title). If you sell or refinance again before breaking even, you may lose that money.
Is a lower rate always worth it?
Not always. A small rate drop with high fees can take many years to pay back. This calculator shows the months so you can decide.
