With the internet, comparing refinance mortgage rates is actually quite simple. All one needs to do is search for a website that will allow a user compare rates. The program will need information such as the mortgage amount, how much is being put down, and a credit score to give a list of options available.

Taking Advantage of Refinance Mortgage Companies?

With interest rates as low as they are, now may be an excellent time to refinance your mortgage. While many mortgage lenders have tightened their underwriting standards, there are still many refinance mortgage companies that are willing to give out a refinance mortgage. To get your mortgage refinance through one of these companies, there are various underwriting criteria that should be met. The first piece of underwriting criteria that should be met in order to have your mortgage refinanced is to have a good credit score. While in years past many mortgage refinance companies were willing to refinance a mortgage for anyone with a credit score over 620, the high rate of default for people with bad credit has tightened their underwriting. Today, getting a better interest rate from one of these refinance companies will require you to have a credit score of 740 or better. However, those with scores between 680 and 740 could still be approved for a mortgage refinance, but they will pay a higher rate. The second piece underwriting criteria that should be met in order to have your mortgage refinanced is to have a sizable down payment. When underwriting standards were looser, many borrowers were able to get mortgage loans with as little as 0% down. Today, mortgage refinance companies will require at least 10% equity in the home. Since housing prices have fallen across the country, you may have a hard time getting a mortgage refinanced even if you used to have equity in your home. To get approved for the refinance, you may need to put forth another down payment. The third piece underwriting criteria that should be met in order to have your mortgage refinanced is to have a low debt to income ratio. A debt to income ratio is a measurement of your monthly housing debt divided by you monthly gross income. In years past, a person could be approved for a mortgage if their debt to income ratio was less than 40%. Due to the tightened underwriting standards, the debt to income ratio requirement has dropped to around 30% for most lenders. This may require you to purchase a cheaper home.

If your mortgage has a two year clause does this mean you have to wait until then to refinance?

If I understand your situation, you mean your mortgage has a two year clause in the sense that it can't be discharged or "forgiven" in that time frame? If I were you, I would call a customer service representative with the bank that's holding this mortgage and ask them. It's hard to answer this question without looking at the particulars of your mortgage. Good luck.

Can you refinance your mortgage while it's in foreclosure?

If you are in foreclosure it will be very hard to refinance out of it. If you are able to get current I would say there's a chance if your loan makes sense. You could possibly however get something called a, hard money loan, but the interest rate would be very high and you would have to pay a lot of money up front. If you are in foreclosure, I would try and short sale the property or become current.

Will my options for home mortgage interest rates be compromised by my having filed bankruptcy recently?

If you have filed bankruptcy recently your options for low home mortgage interest rates are going to be very slim, if they exist at all. In fact it will be hard to get a mortgage from a reputabel company at all, especially if a home was involved in the bankruptcy proceedings. It will depend on how recent the bankruptcy was, what all was involved in the proceedings and how you have resolved things since as well as finding a bank that may have a program designed to help people in your situation.
