Refinancing Options for Retirees to Achieve Financial Goals

Every homeowner’s financial journey is unique. Whether your goal is to shorten your loan term or access home equity, refinancing may be a powerful tool to help you achieve it.

Refinancing Options to Match Your Goals

Refinancing replaces your current mortgage with a new loan that often offers better terms, such as a lower interest rate or an extended loan term. These adjustments can lead to significant savings and improved cash flow, giving you more control over your budget.

Access Your Home Equity

See if you can unlock the value of your home with a cash-out refinance. Use the funds for:

  • Consolidating debt into one lower monthly payment.
  • Home improvements or accessibility upgrades.
  • Covering medical expenses or other large costs.

Example: Leverage a cash-out refinance to remodel your home or consolidate credit card debt, simplifying your financial responsibilities.

Lower Your Monthly Payments

You may be able to refinance to a lower interest rate or extend your loan term to reduce monthly payments*. This is ideal for:
  • Freeing up cash flow for other expenses.
  • Reducing financial stress while on a fixed income.
  • Increasing budget flexibility during retirement.
*By refinancing your current mortgage, your finance charges may be higher over the life of the loan. 

Switch Loan Types

Transition to a loan type that aligns with your financial goals and current market conditions.

  • Move from an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) to a fixed-rate loan for consistent payments.
  • Switch to an ARM to take advantage of lower introductory rates (interest rates may increase and be higher than the fixed rate option after the introductory rate changes).

This option is great if you:

  • Want financial predictability with a fixed rate.
  • Seek to take advantage of lower initial market rates with an ARM (interest rates may increase and be higher than the fixed rate option after the introductory rate changes).

Is Refinancing Right for You?

Refinancing offers retirees a range of potential advantages, but it’s essential to consider:

  • Current interest rates compared to your existing rate.
  • How long you plan to remain in your home.
  • Your current and future financial needs.
