You would waive your right of homestead if you want to refinance your home. A bank will not loan money on property that is subject to a right of homestead. It could not foreclose if there was a default and a homestead was in effect. The boilerplate language in mortgages contains a clause that the signer is waiving rights of homestead in the property.
