What options does a recast offer me?
A recast is a simple procedure that lowers your monthly loan payments. However, if you want to change the term of
your loan or convert an ARM to a fixed rate, you will need to refinance your loan.
Will my loan’s interest rate change as a result of a recast?
No, the interest rate will not change.
How much cash do I need to be considered for a recast?
Generally, you will be required to submit a minimum of $5,000.00. This sum is called a principal curtailment.
How much does it cost to recast a mortgage with GMFS?
GMFS charges $250.00 to cover all administrative fees, if applicable, based on state guidelines. GMFS will need to
receive the payment prior to performing the recast, if applicable.
How long will it take to finalize the recast and lower my monthly payments?
Generally, a recast will take around 60 days to finalize.
I have an escrow account for my mortgage. Will a recast affect the escrow?
No. Escrow accounts are only affected by changes in tax rates or insurance premiums.
How do I request a recast?
Recast requests can be made in writing or by contacting Customer Care at 866-392-1860. You will need to sign the
attached Recast Authorization Form and return it to GMFS with your principal curtailment payment of at least
$5,000.00. This payment can be made via bank wire, by check, on our website gmfsservicing.com, or over the phone
