A mortgage rate break on refinancing

Chase Home Lending is offering a refinancing rate discount for two weeks, from Dec. 1 through Dec. 14. If you lock your rate during the promotional period, you will earn an interest rate reduction, which varies by loan product and location.

"In a high-rate environment, even a modest rate reduction can deliver meaningful savings for homeowners," Bhavesh Patel, consumer channel executive at Chase Home Lending, told Yahoo Finance in an email. "For instance, over the past few months we’re seeing customers sitting at a 6.5-7% interest rate that could benefit from a 50 [basis point] reduction when refinancing."

If you combine the discount with other Chase offers, such as relationship pricing, your rate cut could be up to 1%.

2 ways to refinance your home

The rate sale applies to both rate-and-term and cash-out refinancing.

• A rate-and-term refinance lets you replace your old loan with one that has a new interest rate or term length.

• A cash-out refinance allows you to take some of the equity out of your home in a lump sum of cash. The money you take from the home's value is added back into a new loan.

"If you have a high interest rate on your current loan or need extra cash, you might want to consider refinancing. You may also consider refinancing if you want to lower your monthly payments or reduce the total amount you’re paying for your home," Patel noted.

Homeowners can use the Chase home value estimator to calculate their home equity as well as how much they may qualify to borrow. The tool allows you to enter your home's address and instantly see an estimated value, along with recent comparable sales in the neighborhood.

How to apply for the Chase refinance rate discount

Interested homeowners can apply and lock in their mortgage rate at a Chase branch, by phone, online, or through the Chase MyHome app.

"Since rates fluctuate, locking in a discounted rate for up to 60 days in select locations provides price assurance for customers in a volatile market," Patel added.

Closing costs can range from 2% to 6%, Patel said. Chase offers a refinance closing cost calculator to help you estimate fees and related expenses. Applicants will need to submit wage verification documentation, such as W-2s or 1099 forms, as well as tax returns and statements from their bank and investment accounts.

He also reminded homeowners that they don't have to refinance with the same lender that issued their mortgage — and you don’t have to be an existing Chase customer to qualify for the rate discount. "Comparing lenders can alert you of promotions they may be running or help you find a lender that is offering a lower rate or charging lower fees," he said.
