It compares your current mortgage to a new one and shows your monthly savings, the closing costs, and the break-even point where refinancing starts paying off.
Refinance in Florida
Florida's documentary stamp and intangible taxes apply to a refinance just as they do to a purchase, so closing costs here push the break-even point out a few months further than in states without those taxes. Factor that in before assuming a small rate drop is worth it.
The calculator computes your new payment at the proposed rate and term, subtracts it from your current payment to find monthly savings, then divides closing costs by those savings to find how many months it takes to break even.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is refinancing worth it?
When your monthly savings recover the closing costs before you plan to leave the home. The calculator shows your break-even month; staying past it means the refinance pays off.
Does refinancing restart my loan?
It can. A new 30-year loan resets the clock, which lowers the payment but can increase total interest. Choosing a shorter new term avoids that while still capturing a lower rate.
