📉 Lower Your Monthly Mortgage Payment
“More breathing room, better budgeting — here’s how to lower your payment.”
📘 Why Lowering Your Payment Matters
Monthly mortgage payments are often the largest bill people pay — so even a small reduction can create big breathing room. Whether you're struggling with your current loan or just want a smarter strategy, there are several ways to lower your payment.
✅ Ways to Lower Your Mortgage Payment
| Strategy | How It Works | Learn More |
|---|---|---|
| Rate-and-Term Refinance | Replace your loan with one that has a lower rate or longer term | Refinance Options |
| FHA Streamline Refinance | Fast-track refi for FHA borrowers — no appraisal required | FHA Loans |
| VA IRRRL Refinance | Lower your rate quickly if you already have a VA loan | VA Loans |
| Switch to a 30-Year Term | Stretching your loan term lowers the monthly payment | Conventional Refinance |
| Eliminate Mortgage Insurance | Refinance once you hit 20% equity (PMI drops off) | Conventional Loans |
| Loan Modification (Hardship) | For those facing financial hardship — not a refinance | Talk to an Advisor |
🏠 Can I Lower My Payment Without Refinancing?
In some cases, yes:
-
Ask your current lender about removing PMI if your home has appreciated
-
Look into recasting your loan (paying a lump sum to reduce your principal and monthly payment)
-
Explore property tax reassessment if your home's value was overestimated
🧠 Common Questions
How much can I save by lowering my rate?
Even a 1% drop in interest rate can save hundreds monthly — and tens of thousands over the life of the loan.
Will my payment increase if I refinance?
Not unless you're pulling cash out or shortening the term. We’ll run the numbers so you can compare before you commit.
Can I lower my payment without resetting the term?

What if I have an FHA or VA loan?
You may qualify for streamline refinance options with little paperwork and no appraisal.
