Mortgage Loan Recast – Fact Sheet
Did you know you may be able to lower your monthly payment without the stress of refinancing?
You may qualify for the chance to lower your monthly payment by recasting, or “re-amortizing”, your current home
loan, avoiding the hassle and expense of refinancing.
How loan recasting works:
A recast is when you apply an additional sum of
money to substantially reduce the unpaid principal
balance of your loan, and as a result lower the
monthly payment. Recasting is simple:
› If your loan qualifies, we will recalculate your
monthly payment based on the lower
principal balance, using the original terms
(interest rate and length of term) of your
mortgage loan
› By re-amortizing the loan on the new loan
balance, your monthly payment will be lower
Is my loan eligible?
Below are a few of the eligibility requirements your
loan must meet in order to be reviewed to be re-
amortized:
› Principal reduction of at least $5,000 (over
and beyond the loan’s original amortization
schedule)
› Senior Lien (1
st
mortgage)
› Conventional mortgage (FHA, VA, and Rural
Development loans are not eligible under
this program)
› Current with no outstanding amounts due
› No past due payments within the last 12
months
› 90 days after the mortgage closing date
› 90 days prior to any scheduled Adjustable
Rate payment changes
How to get started:
Simply complete, sign, and return the attached
Mortgage Loan Recast Application (all original signors
of the original Note must sign this application).
What happens next?
› We will review your submitted Mortgage
Loan Recast Application to make sure you
qualify
› If you qualify, you will receive a Mortgage
Loan Recast Agreement, which will include
your new monthly payment amount, within
15 days
› You should then execute, notarize and return
the Mortgage Loan Recast Agreement, along
with the lump sum payment, and a one-time
recast fee of $500
› Your new monthly mortgage payment
amount will begin on the effective date
specified on the Mortgage Loan Recast
Agreement
Before requesting a loan recast, as a borrower,
you should consider your goals and options.
› If your main goal is to reduce your monthly
payments rather than pay your loan off
faster, then a recast could be a good option
for you.
› If your main goal is to limit the amount of
interest paid and pay off your loan sooner,
then a recast may not be a good fit for you.
Note:
Do not send funds for a Recast until you have received Confirmation of Eligibility for the program
and the written Recast Agreement.
