Key Findings of the Study

Key Benefits

A refinance market occurs when the terms of an existing loan, such as interest rates, payment schedules, or other terms, are revised. Borrowers tend to refinance when interest rates fall. Refinancing involves the re-evaluation of a person or business's credit and repayment status. At the same time, banks and financial institutes are offering numerous refinance options to customers with fixed-rate mortgages and lower interest rates. The aforementioned factors are expected to act as growth impellers for the industry. Numerous players are focusing on developing and launching home refinance solutions to help customers qualify for refinancing options. Such product launches are aimed at providing a better customer experience to the customers. For instance, in July 2021, Ally Home, the lending arm of Ally Bank that caters to residential mortgages, launched RefiNow, a home financing option. RefiNow caters to the needs of customers facing difficulties in qualifying or ending up with slower refinancing due to barriers such as lower income levels.

Borrowers refinance market their existing loans to benefit from reduced monthly payments so that borrowers can pay faster, modify their loan terms, and cash out the home equity value are also major factors contributing to the industry’s growth.

In a cash refinance, a new mortgage refi rates is obtained, which is higher than the original mortgage, by leveraging the home as collateral. The difference is paid out to the borrower in cash, which acts as a significant factor contributing to the market growth. The obtained cash can then be used to pay off the debt, eliminate the high-interest rates on credit cards, make home improvements, and invest in savings.
