In simple terms Refinancing is whereby you raise capital from your current assets such as you house, refinancing is also now used to consolidate existing finance by applying for a secured loan to replace existing finance.
Refinancing is commonly done to reduce interest payments or raise capital for say starting a new business by liquidating some or all of the equity from your property. People also refinance in order to buy new cars or boats or take a world cruise.
You should speak with an indpendent financial advisor, before deciding on refinancing. Some refinancing loans can have big penalty payments if you pay off the refinancing early. In addition some refinancing loans, whilst they may have lower initial payments, may have larger interest costs. You should ensure you are familiar with all of the costs before taking out refinancing.
