Learn how to refinance your mortgage to save money and lower your interest rate!

While the historic low mortgage rates we saw in 2020 appear to be gone, the 30-year fixed rate mortgage is still relatively low, which means it’s not too late to lock in a lower monthly mortgage payment for potentially the next decade or more if you move quickly.

But the mortgage refinance process can be complicated, with a lot of moving parts and confusing terms that can lead even experienced homebuyers to throw up their hands in exasperation. If you’re going to work fast, you need to be smart about it and know what to expect.

So before you start down the road to refinancing, let’s go through the basics on how to refinance your mortgage and look at a few time-saving tips so you can quickly get today’s low rates locked down before they go up again.

  1. I haven’t watched any late shows in years because they treat me like dirt for their multi-million dollar contracts and call it comedy. Do you know the pain of fighting these corporate megaphones? No amount of pleading changes anything.

  3. it requires money to make money this is the best secret I have ever heard we don’t make money we make multiple money

    1. Without the help of expert shelton morrison I would have still been in abject poverty struggling with life

    2. @Mr Anthony
      Yes I can believe that, I got victory with him, I was so sad after receiving the first try knowing I invested so low with fear😓😫

    3. I’m so happy for taking the bold step in working and investing $2000 with Mr shelton morrison after a week I received $6468 to my bank

  4. Monday I bought heating oil at $3.80 a gallon …. Today the price is *$4.60.*
    Let’s go Brandon, I agree.

    1. @John Smith Can’t cut the head off because the head is in Germanys energy market…. get it. Cause they got rid of their nuke plants and started growing fairy windmills to appease Greta…. all while importing Russian natural gas and oil to where THEY ARE DEPENDENT on Russian imports.

    2. @John Smith If you shut off Russian oil you shut off Germany. That’s why Germany has kept their mouth shut and why THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!! THE US should restart American oil and gas production while rebuilding manufacturing BUBBA! It’s about time America wakes UP!

    3. @D Hill “leftist” not really. I just don’t think we can live 1920’s again. You just need to get with the times or get out of the way. I worked in manufacturing field for 14 yrs as a machinist. Good help is hard to find, but everybody is replaceable. I was in IT for 24 yrs after manufacturing. Manufacturing is getting replaced by the 2,000’s age of robotics. I suggest you get an education higher then 8th grade or get left behind.

    1. well that’s all part of the plan. The admin is either stupid AF for making all of these moves they have done, or flat out trying to break the working class into submission because we’re all broke and can’t afford anything anymore. but hey, he’ll be here to save us when we’re all broke right? Another great idea to fix the royal phuckup already happening.

  6. I know Everyone needs more than just their basic Salary to be Financially secured, So the best thing to do with your money is to invest in different streams of income, because money left in savings always end up used with no returns

    1. This is the kind of info we don’t get from most YouTubers. I will get In touch with him right away. I’m really impressed

    2. I met mr David for the first time at a conference in Portsmouth I invested £2,200 and traded in some couple of weeks making close to £5,759

    3. Seeing a lot of success stories, he must be honest and trustworthy to get such positive reviews from his clients.
