Refinance Calculator
Compare keeping your current mortgage with replacing it. See principal-and-interest payments, closing costs and points. Full-term interest totals cover different periods when loan terms differ, not a same-horizon savings estimate.

Refinance summary
The modeled monthly principal-and-interest payment is $334 lower. That is a payment difference, not overall savings. Fees, how long you keep the loan and the balance still owed matter, especially when the terms differ.
Monthly payment
Cost to refinance
Same-period payments and remaining debt
How long you expect to keep the loan. No sale costs, tax effects or discounting are modeled.
Compare both payments and remaining debt. Financed closing costs and points are already in the new loan balance, not an additional cash payment. These figures do not select a winner.
Separate full-term interest totals, not comparable savings
A lower monthly payment can still mean more total interest if the new term is longer than what you have remaining. Use the Break-Even Calculator to see how long it takes to recover the refinance cost.
