Frequently asked questions
- What is the break-even point?
- It is the number of months of lower payments needed to recoup the closing costs. If you plan to stay past that point, refinancing usually pays off.
- Does a lower payment always mean a better deal?
- Not always. Stretching the balance over a fresh long term can lower the payment but increase total interest. The lifetime interest figure shows the real picture.
- Is this financial advice?
- No. These are estimates to help you plan and compare options. Your real figures depend on your lender, taxes and personal situation, so check with a qualified professional before deciding.
- Is my data sent anywhere?
- No. Every calculation runs in your browser. Nothing you type is uploaded, logged or stored, and the numbers reset when you close the tab.
