Mortgage Refinance Calculator — frequently asked questions

Straight answers about taxes, PMI, extra payments, and biweekly schedules.

How do I model my current loan vs. a refinance?+

Enter your current loan balance as the home price with 0% down (or adjust to show the exact loan amount). Set the new rate and term to compare payments.

Should I refinance to a shorter term?+

A shorter term usually means a higher monthly payment but less total interest. Use the calculator to compare 30-year vs. 15-year or 20-year at your new rate.

How do I factor in refinance closing costs?+

The calculator does not include closing costs. Divide your closing costs by your monthly savings to find the break-even period. Refinance only if you plan to stay past break-even.

Does the calculator include cash-out refinance?+

For a cash-out refinance, enter the new loan amount (current balance plus cash taken). The calculator will show the payment on that total.

Can I compare a refinance to paying extra on my current loan?+

Yes. Run the calculator with your current balance and add extra payments to see payoff date and interest saved. Compare that to the refinance scenario.
