Most
unsecured debt is priced by your bank at a higher rate than your mortgage in
order to compensate them for the higher risk of loss if you default. For many
people it only makes sense to use available home equity to pay out this debt,
as it typically reduces interest costs significantly. If the total of the
existing mortgage and the debt to refinance
your home in Lethbridge
is less than 75% of the value of your home, and you qualify in terms of income
and credit standing, refinancing your first mortgage should be a breeze.
If you
want to spend a significant amount of money on improving your home, you may be
able to take out a lot more equity through refinance
loans in Lethbridge Alberta than you realized! Peter can
advise you through this process. Both insurers — GE Capital and CMHC, will
insure new mortgages which are "topped up" for this purpose, and the
total of your current mortgage and the new funds exceeds 75% of the current
home value. Not all improvements are eligible, however. Pools and spas are
typical "over-improvements" which may not qualify for a high-ratio
equity take-out. Of course, if the total requirement is less than 75% of your
home's current value, you should have little trouble getting the "top
up" you need — regardless of the degree of luxury you plan to add.
