Century 21 Riverpointe can help you find the perfect HUD home
Close to eight million home-owners have already hit rock bottom, due to a lack of refinancing. Don’t join the club.
“Recent reductions in the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage could net the population of borrowers big savings if they would refinance, according to Black Knight Financial Services’ latest Mortgage Monitor Report.
“Before the most recent reductions in the average 30-year mortgage interest rate, approximately 6 million borrowers met broad-based ‘refinancibility’ criteria,” says Trey Barnes, Black Knight’s senior vice president of Loan Data Products. “These criteria assume loan-to-value ratios of 80 percent or below, good credit, non-delinquent loan status, and current interest rates high enough that borrowers have an incentive to refinance. In light of where rates are today, and looking at borrowers with current notes at 4.5 percent and above, that population has now swelled to 7.4 million — almost a 25 percent increase. This is a relatively conservative assessment, though, as those with current rates of 4.25 percent to 4.5 percent could arguably benefit from refinancing as well. That group adds another 1.7 million borrowers to the population.””
This is a scary situation, but it can be easily. Don’t take my word for it; complete these two simple tasks. First, check out the provided RealtyMag article. Then, contact a friendly Century 21 Riverpointe agent, for information on refinancing.
