Is your mortgage is up for renewal?
Its more important than ever to shop around for the best mortgage rates.
First step is to know the amount of equity you have in your home. Some lenders have minimum requirements for the percentage of equity required to get their best rates.
The more equity, the more power to negotiate. Do your homework by calling a local realtor for an evaluation on your home. Make sure you mention it is for general financing purposes and not for selling - you want a fair price.
