MEETING YOUR REFINANCING GOALS

The context of refinancing your mortgage comes when you want to or have to revise the interest rate, terms of a previous credit agreement, and payment schedule. Mortgagors typically decide on refinancing a loan agreement, when the environment of interest rate has changed substantially causing potential savings on payment liability from a renewed agreement.

Refinancing can also be defined as replacing the existing mortgage pattern with an ideally better and new loan agreement. Sometimes, debtors choose refinancing to pay off all the outstanding payment liabilities with the new loan. Karkare Mortgages help you find the best deals, evaluating your needs and prerequisites. There are many benefits and a few drawbacks of refinancing – we take the responsibility to educate you on each detail.

FAQs

Insured mortgages are essentially for those who pay less 20% of their purchase price as down payment. This solution is applicable only on owner-occupied properties and amortization possible for maximum 25 years. Insured mortgages are typically afforded the best rates. These financings are covered on the backend by insurance companies like Genworth, CMHC, or Canada Guaranty.

Uninsured mortgages are applicable to those who make a down payment of more 20% of the purchase price. These deals can be amortized over 30 years and have higher interest rates than an insured mortgage. However, you are allowed to make lower monthly payments and it gives you a greater ability to qualify.

To make a cogent decision while choosing mortgages, some prefer lower monthly repayments while others appreciate the best interest rate. So, understanding your essential needs and eligibility is very important.

Fixed mortgages come with fixed interest rate and consistent payment scheme that allow you to make a definitive budget. Whereas, variable mortgages manifest fluctuating interest rate that is normally lower than the fixed interest rate and reflects the market condition. The calculation is done in this way – higher is your interest rate, lower is your principal amount.

In open mortgage, you’ll have the ability to pay off your principal mortgage amount ahead of your term without any penalty. In contrary, closed mortgages have fixed payment for the term of your mortgage and you’ll have to pay penalty fees on paying off your mortgage ahead of the term. Typically, closed mortgages have lower interest rates than open mortgages.
