bad credit mortgage refinance
With bad credit, can I refinance my mortgage to the lower rate or will my bad credit prevent me from refi?
I have heard conflicting reports on this.
Now paying rate: 6.25%
Mortgage Rates today: 4.5%
Can I get the lower rate with bad credit?
So I guess the gentleman on Good Morning America does not have his facts straight. He said even with bad credit your mortgage company will refinance because the lower rate will help you stay current on your house note.
Actually it might be possible under the new “Home Affordable Refinance Program”, this requires most Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac lenders to work with you, if you have certain circumstances. Here is a website to check it out:
