<p>Right now there are a ton of federal programs that you could miss out on if you choose not to reginance now! They could save you money and help in the <a href="http://blog.joestacy.com/uncategorized/chicagoland-nw-suburban-il-real-estate-predictions-for-2010-in-suburban-chicago-real-estate-and-beyond/" target="_blank">economic recovery</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.joestacy.com/reports/mortgage-news/your-chicagoland-mortgage-market-update-12208/" target="_blank">Federal mortgage refinance </a>programs have helped more than 2 million homeowners refinance their home loans to help them save money on their mortgage payment and stay in their homes. Also, right now, <a href="http://blog.joestacy.com/reports/mortgage-news/fed-slashes-key-rate-to-near-zero/" target="_blank">rates are stable and LOW</a>! Hovering around the 5% mark.</p>
<p>In fact, around 2.2 million homeowners have saved an average of $120 a month on their payment. a 10.5% reduction from their previous payment.</p>
<p>Refinance activity will result in $2.3 BILLION in mortgage payment savings for borrowers who refinanced in the first half of 2009. Over the next five years those savings for 2009 will grow to $11.5 BILLION!</p>
<p>Also, now homeowners do not need to look just to their existing lender/servicer for refinance options.</p>
<p>Since Oct. 1, 2009, homeowners got the option to shop around and refinance through any Fannie or Freddie lender.</p>
<p>In addition to lowering your monthly payment, a refinanced mortgage can move you to a fixed or adjustable rate, shorten the term of your home loan, or let you tap home equity &#8211; with a lender&#8217;s approval.</p>
<p>Having low rates means that now is the best chance to buy a home before rates rise and prices go up again! Now could be the best chance to take advantage of the market as the recovery continues&#8230;</p>
