Mortgage Refinancing

When it’s time to renew your mortgage, one option you should consider is refinancing. This is the best way to get better terms and interest rates, however, it also requires specialized legal attention. Because a refinance mortgage can reduce fees you pay to the bank, it must be done right. There are also occasionally ‘gotcha’ clauses that could threaten your title to the home.

The bank has lawyers working for them to ensure that the refinancing agreements are in the institution’s best interests. Why not have expert real estate lawyers looking out for what’s best for you? With over 30,000 real estate transactions completed, we know we can arrange better terms for your mortgage refinancing.

Home Equity Credit

A home equity line of credit (HELOC) or regular line of credit can be an excellent tool for managing your expenses. It typically comes with an interest rate much lower than credit cards and can be secured by any number of assets. One of the most common security forms for a HELOC loan is your home’s equity. Additionally, you can use cars, collectible items, precious metals, art, boats, investment accounts, or retirement accounts.

Though a HELOC can be helpful if you’re looking to complete renovations or want to pay down other debt, you need to understand all of the legal aspects of the loan. LeClair Thibeault’s legal experts can help you to structure the line of credit agreement to fit your best interests, not the lender’s.

Tap Your Home Equity

With a home equity line of credit (HELOC), you can withdraw some of the value of your real estate without selling your home. There are some important issues that you need to watch to avoid giving too much leverage to the lender. We’ll help guide you through them.

Build Your Credit

Lines of credit can be affordable and less risky ways for you to build your credit rating. It generally comes without many of the downsides and additional fees associated with other forms of debt like credit cards. You can also use it to finance major purchases.

Protect Your Interests

Banks structure lines of credit terms to their best interests. What many people don’t understand is that you can also negotiate to have it structured more towards your interests. That’s the result we provide our clients in this service area.

Don’t Defer Your Dreams

A secured line of credit can make prior financial obstacles go away. You can use a line of credit to finance vacations, education, home remodeling, to pay off higher interest debts, and more.
