Refinancing can lower your monthly payment or save you thousands in interest, but it is not always free. You must compare upfront closing costs against your monthly savings to find the true break-even point. Refer to the CFPB Refinancing Guide to plan your approach.

Extending your loan term can lower your monthly payment but can increase the total interest paid over the life of the loan. Review IRS Publication 936 regarding tax deductions.
