When you refinance your mortgage, you enter into a process that replaces your existing mortgage with a new mortgage.  When a refinance is done, it allows the existing loan to be paid off and the new loan to replace it. As a borrower you might want to refinance for any of the following reasons:  convert a variable rate to a fixed rate, obtain a lower interest rate, shorten or lengthen the term of your mortgage, eliminate PMI, avoid a balloon payment, or you may even want to obtain money for debt reduction, large purchases, college tuition or any other reason.

There are fees involved with a refinance which many times can be rolled into the new loan.  Speaking with a qualified mortgage professional is recommended to determine whether or not a refinance makes sense for you right now.
