Interest rates on a cash-out refinance may be slightly higher than they are for a rate-and-term refinance. This is because when you withdraw cash from the equity in your home, the new mortgage amount will be higher than your existing loan making it more of a risk to the lender.

Start your application if you’re ready to refinance your mortgage.
Get answers to frequently asked questions about refinance rates.
To find the best refinance rate:
- Get multiple quotes: Compare rates, APRs, fees and closing costs from various lenders to ensure you’re getting the best deal. If you shop around within a short period of time, the credit requests will be listed as a single inquiry on your credit report.
- Build your credit score: Your credit score helps determine the rate you’ll get. The higher your score, the better when it comes to refinancing. You can protect your credit score by rate shopping within a short timeframe so the requests count as just one inquiry.
- Shorten your loan term: Shorter-term loans usually have lower interest rates.
Refinance rates tend to be slightly higher than purchase rates. The difference in rates is related to the increased risk of refinancing. For example, a cash-out refinance is considered riskier because when you access your home equity for cash, your loan amount increases.
There are several factors that contribute to how interest rates are calculated, including:
- Baseline: Lenders use a 10-year Treasury note to set the baseline for interest rates. A percentage is then added to account for the added risk a refinance poses to the lender.
- Seasonality: When the real estate market is slow and the demand for mortgages is less, lenders may lower rates. Similarly, an active market may result in higher interest rates.
- Economic and world events: Lenders are sensitive to risk. Financial news like a sudden drop in the stock market, a rise in unemployment numbers or inflation may cause them to increase rates.
If the reduction is great enough, refinancing into a lower interest rate could decrease your payment, leaving more money in your monthly budget. And depending on the term of the loan, you could also save on the total amount of interest paid over the life of the loan. Other benefits to refinancing may include changing your loan terms or getting access to cash for major purchases.
