Cash-Out Is A Refinance Strategy
Cash-out isn't really a separate product — it's a refinance with a larger balance. You replace your existing first mortgage with a new, bigger loan and take the difference in cash at closing. Best fit when your current rate is at or above market.
- • Your current rate is at or above today's market
- • You want one consolidated loan and one payment
- • You need a larger sum than a HELOC or second supports
- • Your first mortgage is in the 2–4% range
- • You only need a flexible draw line
- • You're protecting a sub-market rate
- • Most programs cap at 80% LTV
- • Fixed rate, single monthly payment
- • Funds wire at closing — use however you choose

Lower My Payment
A rate-and-term refinance can reduce your monthly payment when rates have improved or when extending your term. We'll review breakeven on closing costs so the savings make sense for how long you plan to stay.

Side-by-side comparison of the four most common ways to refinance or tap equity.
| FEATURE | CASH-OUT REFINANCE | HELOC | SECOND MORTGAGE | RATE & TERM REFINANCE |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Typical Uses | Large lump-sum needs, debt payoff, renovations | Ongoing access, project-by-project draws | Equity access without touching 1st mortgage | Lower rate or shorter term, no cash out |
| Potential Benefits | Fixed rate, single payment, often lower blended rate | Pay interest only on what you use, flexible | Preserve a low 1st-mortgage rate | Lowest closing-cost path to better terms |
| Considerations | Resets your loan term, has full closing costs | Variable rate, payment can change | Higher rate than 1st mortgage | No cash to borrower |
| Flexibility | Low — fixed structure | High — revolving line | Medium — fixed lump sum | Low — no equity access |
| Typical Time To Close | 30–45 days | 2–4 weeks | 30–45 days | 21–45 days |
