Is your mortgage coming up for renewal this year or in 2025? Do you know about all the incredible options renewing your mortgage can afford you? If not, I have all the details here on how to make the most of your renewal!

 

Get a Better Rate: Did you know that when you receive notice that your mortgage is coming up for renewal, it's the best time to shop around for a more favorable interest rate? At renewal time, it's easy to explore other lenders for a preferable interest rate without breaking your mortgage. With interest rates expected to start coming down next month, reaching out and exploring the market could potentially save you a significant amount of money!

 

Consolidate Debt: Renewal time is also an excellent opportunity to assess your existing debt and decide whether consolidating it into your mortgage is beneficial. Whether it's holiday credit card debt, car loans, education loans, or other debts, consolidating your mortgage streamlines your payments into one, potentially at a lower interest rate compared to other sources.

 

Invest in Renovations: Do you have home improvement projects waiting to be tackled? Renewal time provides a great opportunity to tap into your home equity for renovations, whether it's your dream kitchen, bathroom upgrades, or even investing in a vacation property. Utilizing your equity can bring your renovation dreams to life.

 

Adjust Your Mortgage Product: Not satisfied with your current mortgage product? Whether it's fluctuations in variable rates or seeking a different payment or amortization schedule, renewal time allows you to switch things up. You can lock in a fixed rate for stability or opt for a variable rate if you anticipate changes in interest rates. Adjusting your mortgage product can align it better with your financial goals.
