How to Refinance Your Home in a Few Simple Steps With LendingTree

Owning a property is one of the greatest signs of achievement in this country. But that achievement comes at a price. What are we talking about? Your mortgage. We know it's difficult to pay off, whether the economy is in flux or whether you struggle with poor credit. But for any homeowner, a mortgage doesn't have to be a prison sentence. Here's how to make it a much simpler obstacle to hurdle.

Home refinancing can be a really good option once your first loan is paid off in order to create a new mortgage with an adjusted interest term and rate. There's just a few things to consider before refinancing, because it might not be beneficial in all situations. That's why we trust LendingTree, a company that finds you great deals on loans, to get you on track to a better mortgage.

Here's how it works. Simply log onto their site and go to home loans and "Refinance." Enter the type of property you own and click to view your free offers. Then, answer a few questions about how you use your property, your zip code, the property value, the remaining 1st mortgage balance, and whether or not you have a second mortgage (and remaining balance). Then, enter how much additional cash you'd like to borrow as well as your credit score, and a bit about your personal financial history to receive information on pre-qualification for home refinancing. It's as straightforward as that!

LendingTree offers much more than just feedback on your eligibility for home refinancing, but also includes a mortgage calculator, home affordability calculator, refinance calculator, and refinance payment calculator. They also provide useful resources on mortgage and refinance rates and mortgage lender reviews, so you can educate yourself about how to best continue on your road to getting that mortgage paid off for good.

Home ownership is a huge responsibility, and mortgages can often seem burdensome if they were poorly negotiated. However, LendingTree is there to provide assistance in helping you refinance your home in a simple process.

Oh, how far we’ve come! Recently, it was revealed that — finally! — women CEOs at Fortune 500 companies outnumber male CEOs named John. A dubious milestone, but it's something to celebrate.

Though women have come pretty far in society, the progress we've made is far from enough. From the pay gap to daily microaggressions, it’s still obvious that women are treated as lesser than in society. This is especially clear when you look at how few female-founded businesses there are.
