When Should I Refinance?
The best time to refinance is when interest rates in Georgia drop below the rate of your current mortgage. With a lower interest rate, you'll save money on your mortgage payment every month. Be sure to read our article titled Reasons to Refinance Now.
Turn Your Adjustable Rate into a Fixed Rate
With adjustable rates on the rise GA residents can benefit greatly from refinancing your home for a low fixed rate. These benefits include a lower monthly mortgage payment, and the security of knowing your mortgage payment won't increase.
Cash-Out Refinancing
Using the equity in your home, you can refinance your mortgage for a higher amount than your current principal balance and receive the extra funds as cash. You can use this money however you would like, including, remodeling your home, paying off high-interest rate credit cards, paying off student loans, or consolidating all your debt. How much cash out you can receive by refinancing depends largely upon the principal balance remaining on your mortgage and the amount of equity in your home.
Eliminate PMI
Private Mortgage Insurance is usually required if your downpayment on your home was less than 20 percent. If your home equity has increased since your purchase, you may have enough equity to elimate that PMI payment by refinancing your mortgage.
Save Thousands in Interest
When you refinance your home you can decide to switch your mortgage to a shorter term, such as 10, 15, or 20 years. Depending on how much lower the refinance rate is, you will likely pay more per month for this shorter term home loan. However, in the long-term you are saving thousands in interest. And because more of your monthly mortgage payment goes towards the principal, your home equity will increase much quicker.

"Gwinnett Great Day of Service" Congradulates Norton Elementary School Comets
In the spirit of giving,Norton Elementary School in Snellville,Ga.congradulates its students and faculty for collecting over 1,230 food items for the Gwinnett Co-op food pantry this week, in conjunction with "Gwinnett Great Day of Service".Parent Resource Center Coordinator,Jennifer Dionne proudly exclaims, Isn't that wonderful ? The Gwinnett Coalition for Health and Human Services envisioned the Great Days of Service eight years ago in the spirit of Gwinnett's slogan, Success Lives Here. The event is designed to increase community awareness for the many agencies and organizations that the Gwinnett Coalition represents and supports. The Great Days of Service address specific needs in the county through volunteers who complete much-needed service projects for local non-profits and schools. These projects build community while educating citizens and leaders about the needs around them. Last year we had over 30,000 volunteers, including large corporations, schools, small businesses, individuals, church groups, and families, completing 150 service projects which made it one of the largest volunteer initiatives in the country!! It is obvious that teaching the students to care about their community goes beyond the classroom at Norton Elementary.Job well done! ###
