The Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP) is a program created by the federal government to aid the millions of homeowners with underwater properties following the housing market crash. For homeowners in New Jersey trying to refinance in order to obtain better mortgage terms, HARP 2 can be tremendously beneficial, allowing homeowners with mortgages owned by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac to refinance into a low, fixed rate mortgage while avoiding costly mortgage insurance premiums and fees. Although HARP gives homeowners access to much lower rates than their current mortgages, those considering this refinance program should still take the time to compare lenders and to explore available HARP rate. Remember, patience and persistence are well rewarded in the lending process. For more information, check out our main page on HARP refinance rates.
