As our refinancing costs calculator shows, refinancing can cost hundreds of dollars, sometimes thousands. It isn’t always cheap, but a home loan with a lower interest rate can make up for these costs quickly.

How much will I save by refinancing?

Using our Upfront Refinance Costs vs. Interest Rate Savings Calculator, you can estimate how long it will take you to recoup the costs of refinancing with a lower interest rate. Just enter the following information:

  • Your loan balance
  • Your current loan term and the new loan term
  • The interest rates on both loans
  • The upfront costs of refinancing (like discharge fees, application fees and settlement fees)

By doing so, you may get a better idea of whether refinancing to a certain loan is really worthwhile.
