If you have been living in your home for a while, it might be the right time to consider refinancing your mortgage. There are many good reasons to consider refinancing, including lowering your interest rate, consolidating your bills, shortening your loan term, switching from an adjustable to a fixed rate or taking advantage of your home's equity.

Switch From Adjustable to a Fixed Rate, or to a New ARM

If you plan on staying in your home at least five years, now might be an excellent time to switch to the payment security of a fixed-rate loan. Or, if you plan on moving in less than three years, consider refinancing to a new ARM to take advantage of the low starting rates that may be available. Even if the new ARM's rate rises at the first adjustment interval, the starting rate may be low enough to offset any increased payment costs.
