How cash-out refinancing works
A cash-out refinance replaces your existing mortgage with a new, larger loan and pays you the difference in cash at closing.
For example: if your home is worth $500,000 and you owe $300,000, you have $200,000 in equity. A new $400,000 loan pays off the $300,000 balance and puts roughly $100,000 in your pocket (minus closing costs). The amount a lender allows depends on the program, appraisal, occupancy, credit and other requirements.
Cash-out vs. home equity loan
A cash-out refinance replaces your existing mortgage and its rate. A home equity loan or HELOC generally adds a separate lien. Compare costs on the entire debt, including the existing mortgage you would replace; a cash-out refinance is not necessarily cheaper.
Tax considerations
Interest may be tax-deductible when funds are used for home improvements. Tax rules vary by situation — please consult a tax professional.
