Cash-Out Refinance
Defined by Onias Derilus, Mortgage Capital · NMLS# 1859012 · Florida licensed mortgage broker
A cash-out refinance replaces your mortgage with a larger loan and gives you the difference in cash, tapping your home equity.
What Cash-Out Refinance means
You can use the proceeds for renovations, debt payoff, or investment. Most Florida lenders require you to keep at least 20% equity after the cash-out. The new loan resets your rate and term.
Florida example
A homeowner with a $250,000 balance on a $450,000 home refinances into a $360,000 loan, pocketing about $110,000 while retaining 20% equity. Rates on cash-out refinances run slightly higher than rate-and-term refinances.
Turning equity into cash
A cash-out refinance replaces your mortgage with a larger one and hands you the difference in cash. You tap your home equity for renovations, debt payoff, or an investment.
If you owe $200,000 on a $350,000 home, you might refinance to $280,000 and take $80,000 in cash.
The limits and costs
Most lenders let you cash out up to 80% of your home's value, keeping 20% equity in place. You pay closing costs and start a new loan at today's rates.
