If you have an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM), it may adjust to a rate that’s higher than a fixed-rate mortgage. Now might be a good time to consider refinancing to a fixed-rate loan.

There are three option to get lower your monthly mortgage payment. First, you can simply refinance to a lower interest rate. It’s automatically a lower rate becomes a lower monthly payment.

Second, you can change the term of your mortgage. For instance, if you have a 15-year mortgage, you can lengthen the term to 30 years, it will lower your payments automatically since the balance of your mortgage is spread out. And if you have a 30-year mortgage, you can shorten your term to 20 or even 15 years to save your thousands of dollars in the long run to cut off you pay the interest.

The third option to lower your payment is to refinance to an interest-only loan. You’ll pay the amount of interest as much principal as you like. You also get the flexibility to pay less if you need or want to divert to contribute for your 401k or saving for your child’s college tuition.

If you don’t refinance, you may be lost your dollars to save in every month for your loan, and that’s not good for your financial move. But you also need to answer these questions below to make sense your refinance.

Some questions:

* How long do you expect to be in your home?
* How much equity do you have in your home?
* Are you willing to pay points to get a lower rate?
* Will having lower payments more than make up for the closing costs , fees and points if any?
