Refinance Before OR After Marriage

You need to first determine if you need her income or not. If you don't, then do it now as I don't see the benefit of also obligating her for the new loan. My strategy has always been simple. Diversify and minimize the risk. In the event of emergency or unpredictable events where your mortgage payments might get behind or even worst, you will be preserving her credit so you can utilize for later situations. On a different note, if you decide to use her on the loan, then you must grant her to the title and that I believe is indeed a personal matter to determine based on your relationship.

You can refinance either before or after. It is your choice between you and your soon to be new bride whether she is on the loan or not. If you need her income and or credit to help refinance then you can use it. Unless you are looking at refinance programs like the Refi Plus program from Fannie Mae or HARP from Freddie Mac then it gets tricky to add or delete someone from the loan while refinancing. If you live in a community property state your debt will combine when you marry. Creditors usually will leave this alone unless you are not paying a debt and they can't get to you. Then they will tag it to your spouses credit in hopes of recovering the payments owed. Jennifer UrangaCNN Mortgagewww.cnnmortgageaz.com480-751-3723623-202-4449juranga@cnnmortgage.com

Refinance now.

I would wait until after the marriage ceremony, if you are in Texas it is considered community property state. If you are not in Texas well your soon to be bride is going to feel that the home is just as much hers so you might as well wait not unless there is a prenuptial.

Your new bride can always be on Title. We are a community property state.I wouldn't wait much longer. Rates went to their lowest point last Thursday with a big bump Friday afternoon. Today we're back to Thursday's rates.There may not be much movement in rates for a while. The main item to consider when refinancing is your home's value. Another one or two foreclosures or short sales will harm property values within a one mile radius. Rates are based on loan to value.Something to think about. Call me if you would like to discuss this further. I'll also pull cops for you if you wish.Happy funding, Rudi
