How to use it

A quick estimate, without the spreadsheet.

Inputs and units

Enter remaining balance and term, current and proposed rates, and upfront refinance costs.

Formula

Calculate both monthly payments over the same remaining term. Savings = old − new; break-even months = costs / savings when savings are positive.

Worked example

$5,000 costs with $100 monthly savings breaks even after 50 months.

Assumptions and limitations

Assumes the same term and costs paid upfront. Financed fees, term extensions, taxes, insurance and total lifetime interest need a fuller comparison.
