This calculator provides estimates for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer, approval, or commitment to lend.
Actual terms, rates, payments, and costs may vary based on credit, loan program, property, occupancy, loan amount, LTV, DTI,
market conditions, and other factors. Payments shown are principal & interest only unless optional MI is added.
“No-closing-cost” typically means certain closing costs are covered by a lender credit, often in exchange for a higher interest rate.
Prepaid items (interest, taxes, insurance) may still apply depending on escrow setup.
How To Use This Refinance Savings Calculator
Step 1: Enter your current loan
- Current balance and interest rate
- Monthly principal & interest (P&I only)
- Remaining loan term in months
Step 2: Enter your refinance option
- New loan amount, rate, and term
- Estimated closing costs and lender credit (if any)
Step 3: Choose closing cost handling
- Pay upfront: costs reduce net savings
- Roll into loan: costs increase loan balance
- Use lender credit: reduces or offsets closing costs
Step 4: Select your savings horizon
Most homeowners refinance or move before the full loan term. Use the horizon selector to model realistic savings over time.

No. This calculator is for planning purposes only. Our licensed mortgage advisors can provide a personalized quote and confirm eligibility.
A lender credit is a credit applied to closing costs, typically in exchange for a slightly higher interest rate. This can reduce out-of-pocket cash at closing.
Savings depend on how many years (aka horizon) you keep the loan. A refinance can look great over 7 years but less compelling over 2 years if closing costs haven’t been recovered yet. Use the slider in the Savings Horizon bar to select the number of years you plan to keep your mortgage. The default horizon period is the full term of the loan, for example, 30 years on a 30-year fixed mortgage.
Closing costs vary by loan size, state, property type, and program. The most optimal way to get accurate numbers is via a personalized quote from our licensed mortgage advisor. Contact us at (888) 9-RELFIN.
Refinancing can still make sense even if you plan to sell or move in a few years. This calculator uses a customizable savings horizon slider to show whether monthly savings outweigh closing costs over your expected time in the home. If your break-even period is shorter than your planned ownership timeframe, refinancing may still be beneficial. Use the slider in the Savings Horizon box to specify the number of years you plan to keep your new mortgage.
