A new 30-year loan can reduce the payment partly by stretching repayment over more years. The calculator therefore compares payments made, cash-paid costs and the balance you would still owe at the same future date. Financed costs raise the new loan amount and the interest charged.
The simple payback answers how many months of the initial payment reduction would recover the net closing costs. The horizon comparison adds the remaining balances. Neither includes every household cost or the return you could earn on cash used at closing.
Bring your mortgage statement, remaining term, estimated property value, current mortgage insurance and a complete new quote. Include any second mortgage or HELOC. Use our rate-and-term guide and annual mortgage review checklist for the broader discussion.
This tool assumes the only new borrowing is financed closing costs. Cash-out financing, debt payoff, second liens and changing mortgage insurance need a separate comparison. Review cash-out refinancing with a loan professional.
Look for lender credits, a higher rate, costs financed into the balance, and charges outside the estimate. Enter the actual net costs and financing method; do not omit costs simply because they are not paid in cash.
For independent guidance, see the CFPB guide to comparing loan offers.
