Cash-Out Refinancing: Rates, Requirements and How It Works
Find and compare the current rates on cash-out refinances available in your area. A cash-out refinance replaces your current mortgage with a loan for more than you owed. You take the difference in cash.

What are the requirements for a cash-out refinance?
- Credit score of at least 620: The best rates are reserved for those with the highest credit scores.
- Equity of at least 20%: You need to have built up equity in order to pull it out. (One exception: A VA cash-out refinance, guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs, lets you finance up to 100% of the value of your home.)
- Debt-to-income ratio at or below 50%: For most cash-out refinances, your total amount of existing debt (including your mortgage) can’t exceed 50% of your gross monthly income.
- Seasoning requirement: With a conventional loan, you typically need to have owned your home for at least six months (known as the “seasoning requirement”) before you can refinance. Government-backed loans work differently: With a VA loan, the requirement is 210 days. With an FHA loan, guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration, it’s 12 months.
How much does it cost to get a cash-out refinance?
Pros and cons of a cash-out refinance
- You can receive a lower rate and save on your mortgage payments long-term.
- Allows you to access equity and convert it into cash.
- You’re only making one mortgage payment, rather than managing separate payments for a primary mortgage and a second mortgage (like a home equity loan or home equity line of credit).
- You’ll need to pay closing costs of 2% to 6%.
- When you refinance, you get a new set of terms in addition to a new rate — essentially, you’re restarting the clock.
- Now that you’re taking on a larger mortgage, you risk losing your home if you can’t keep up with the new payments.
