Cashing In on a Cash-Out Re-Fi Why more borrowers are resetting their loans at potentially lower rates and converting equity into cash

W

ith mortgage interest rates remaining at or near historic lows, it’s hardly a surprise that many Americans are refinancing their mortgage loans to reset to a lower fixed rate and possibly even a shorter term.

In fact, according to Black Knight Financial Services, at the end of January, 3.3 million borrowers currently could save at least $200 per month by refinancing their 30-year mortgages. Nearly 1 million have the potential to save $400 or more.

Many homeowners are going a step further with a cash-out refinance: tapping into their home’s equity to draw out extra cash during a mortgage reset.

Cash-out refinancing increased by volume in the third quarter of 2015, the sixth consecutive quarter of increases, according to Black Knight. More than 1 million borrowers opted for a cash-out refi between the third quarters of 2014 and 2015, a period during which $64 billion was cashed out, equating to an average of more than $60,000 per borrower, the highest amount tallied since 2007.

“As the real estate market has recovered, people have discovered that they have equity in their homes again,” says Amy Tierce, regional vice president of Wintrust Mortgage in Needham, Mass.“This, in combination with continued low rates, encourages borrowers to use the equity in their homes.”

Homeowners interested in lower their monthly bills can consolidate debt by refinancing their mortgage. It’s a smarter way to finance, says Jason van den Brand, CEO of Lenda, San Francisco.

typically have at least 20 percent equity in their primary home, a good credit score, a steady job with verifiable monthly income and the discipline to stay put for several years. The rate you qualify for will depend on how much equity you build up in your home, the loan-to-value of the new loan, and if you choose a “no closing cost” cash-out; the latter may increase your rate between 0.125-0.25 percent, according to Tierce.

A cash-out refi is often preferred to alternative forms of financing, such as a home equity loan, home equity line of credit or private loan.

“Because it’s secured by real estate, the interest rate on a cash-out refi is lower than rates for unsecured financing, and because it’s a first mortgage the interest rate is lower than rates for home equity loans, which are usually second mortgages,” says Lebda. loans and credit cards.”

A cash-out refi has some disadvantages.

By converting home equity into cash for Its underwriting guidelines are typically stricter, a big purchase, such as funding education closing takes longer and comes with higher or financing a home improvement project, costs and private mortgage insurance is required “Consumers are getting a low interest rate and for any loan-to-value over 80 percent. You pay are able to finance the purchase over a longer interest immediately on the money you borrow via period time, making the monthly payment a cash-out refinance. significantly lower,” says van den Brand.

“The good news is that it’s easier to do a Qualified borrowers can also choose to reduce their interest rate for their remaining loan cash-out refi today than it was a couple years balance. Adjustable-rate mortgage borrowers can ago. Lending guidelines changed after the refinance to a new ARM or to a fixed rate loan at housing crisis, but they are easing up a little,” says Mark Ferguson, Realtor with Pro Realty, today’s fixed rate pricing.

Greeley, Colorado.

“Either way, this could mean they pay less overall for their mortgage,” says Doug Lebda, founder/CEO of Charlotte, N.C.-based LendingTree.

The best candidates for a cash-out refi “Homeowners have many reasons to convert equity into cash today, including paying off highinterest credit card debt,” says van den Brand.

Looking For Storage In a Tight Market

T

he more you own, the more likely it is you’ll need to rent.

Nearly one in ten U.S. households store belongings they don’t have a place for in a rented storage unit, according to the Self Storage Association.

Many people discover a need for storage when they’re moving, says Chuck Gordon, CEO of Sparefoot.com.

As the housing market has recovered, demand for storage has grown.

“Prices for self-storage are at an all-time high,” says Gordon. The price for a non-climate controlled space averaged $1.25 per square

Are Interest-Only Loans Legit?

Question:

Before the mortgage meltdown it was possible to get interest-only financing. I thought such mortgages had gone away, but our lender says they’re still available. Why are they still allowed and why would I want one?

Answer:

An interest-only mortgage is a form of financing that may be attractive to some borrowers because it offers up-front monthly savings. Properly underwritten, it’s simply another mortgage option. It works for some borrowers and not others.

Let’s say you want borrow $200,000 at 4 percent.

With a fixed rate over 30 years the monthly cost for principal and interest is $954.83. The potential interest bill over the life of the loan is $143,739.

As an alternative, suppose you get a 5/1, interestonly, $200,000 mortgage. The loan is interest-only for the first five years and then converts to a one-year ARM for the remaining 25 years of the loan term.

In the first 60 months you pay only interest. At 4.75

April 29, 2016

foot monthly in the summer of 2015, up from $1.09 per sq. ft. in winter 2011, according to the Self Storage Almanac.

Building of new storage facilities stagnated during the recession and the squeeze is on. “We’re seeing annual rate increases of nearly 10 percent as facilities fill up,” Gordon says.

And just as builders keep adding luxury features to homes, storage options are evolving. Some companies now specialize in pick-up and delivery for residents of densely populated urban centers, where it’s difficult for apartment dwellers to drive out to a storage center.

Even self-storage, positioned as the more bare-bones option, has added options, with some facilities equipped with surveillance cameras, individual door alarms and movable storage containers, reports the SSA.

Gordon offers these tips to storage customers:

• To estimate how much space you’ll need, tape out an area at home to see if items fit in the allotted storage space.

• Inventory items so that you remember what’s stored.

• Check if your renter’s or homeowner’s policy protects items in storage.

You may need an endorsement on your policy to cover expensive articles.

• If storage fees are high in your immediate area, check prices a few miles away.

percent the monthly payment is $791.66. Why 4.75 percent and not 4.00 percent? Because I checked rates with a lender who offered both products and found there was a .75 percent higher rate for the interestonly loan. Still, that’s a monthly cash savings of $163.17, or $9,790 over five years.

At the end of five years the interest-only period ends and we switch to an ARM format. For the sake of illustration let’s say the interest rate remains 4.75 percent.

We now have a $200,000 balance to be repaid over 25 years at 4.75 percent interest. The monthly cost for principal and interest is $1,140.23. The total potential interest cost for the loan includes the $47,500 paid during the first five years of the loan (60 x $791.66) plus $142,069 for the remaining 25 years, a total of $189,569.

We can see that the potential cost for the interestonly loan is $45,830 higher over 30 years. But how realistic is this example?

Will the loan last 30 years? Not likely. According to Freddie Mac, the typical loan is now refinanced after seven years, so the higher cost for the interest-only loan might not happen.

Will the interest-rate remain level once the financing

ASK OUR BROKER

By Peter G. Miller

converts from an interest-only status to an ARM? Again, not likely. The rate can rise or fall. If the rate falls that’s good news, but if the rate rises then the borrower must have the financial capacity to pay. For instance, if the rate rises to 6.75 percent in year six, the new monthly cost for principal and interest will be $1,381.82.

In comparing fixed-rate financing versus interest-only mortgages remember that loan balances count. At the end of five years our interest-only borrower still owes $200,000 while the fixed-rate borrower has reduced the debt to $180,895. Owing $19,105 less to a lender is surely a good thing.

The allure of interest-only financing comes from the initial monthly savings and the potential for lower costs if rates fall. That said, interest-only financing also involves the risk that rates and monthly payments can go higher and that the borrower owes more to the lender for a longer period of time.
