See today’s refinance rates.
Refinancing might make sense for you if interest rates are lower than when you took out your home mortgage.
Refinancing a home loan basically means you’re swapping your current mortgage for a new one – usually with a new principal loan balance and interest rate. The new mortgage pays off your previous one so you’re left with just one loan and one monthly payment. By refinancing your mortgage you might be able to lower your interest rate, decrease your monthly payments or change terms.
Rate-and-term refinance
A rate-and-term refinance may help you lower your monthly mortgage payment or allow you to pay off your home sooner.
Cash-out refinance
A cash-out refinance is a great way to get new mortgage terms and borrow funds for one-time expenses.
Our mortgage refinance calculator will give you an estimate of how much you could save by refinancing your existing mortgage.
If interest rates have dropped, or your credit score has improved, you may be able to get better loan terms by refinancing.
When considering a mortgage refinance, it’s important to understand the process and your potential benefits.
If the time is right, refinancing could save you money, but there’s more to consider than just interest rates.
A home loan refinance means replacing your existing loan with a new one that has more favorable terms. The process of refinancing a mortgage is very similar to securing your first mortgage. Most people refinance a primary home or investment property to take advantage of lower rates, get lower monthly payments or tap into their home equity.
Mortgage refinance rates vary depending on a variety of factors, like loan product and term, credit profile and more. Our refinance rates are updated daily for the most common types of home loans. Compare rates for several refinance options to get an estimate of what your rate could be.
Refinance points (also known as mortgage points, or discount points) are a one-time fee you have the option of paying up front to lower the interest rate on your home refinance. One refinance point is equal to about 1% of your total loan amount, so on a $250,000 refinance loan, one point would cost you about $2,500.
If you have an existing U.S. Bank first mortgage, a U.S. Bank Smartly® Checking account or an existing Gold or Platinum Checking Package, you may be eligible for a client credit5 of 0.25% of the loan amount deducted from the closing costs of your new first mortgage, up to a maximum of $1,000.6
