"Refinance" a boat
 
I picked up a boat last year and paid for it with a home equity loan. The rates have dropped considerably now and I'd like to refinance the loan to a lower rate and get it out of an equity loan as I'm moving this year.

Anyone have any recommendations on a place that will do refinancing if it's NOT a boat loan? I called a couple places and they will only refinance if it's a boat loan.

Its will most likely be considered a "cash out" refi so rates are going to be higher than a standard boat loan.

Did you talk to Kyle aka "Loan Ranger" here on OSO. If that fails, let me know, I've got another couple folks to point you towards.

I did a "cash out" refinance on my boat a year ago...

They got me a 15 yr note on a '93 Checkmate for 6% through Key Bank...

It might be more advantages to keep the equity loan because you can right off the interest.

But I think you should get up with the Newcoast folks they will shoot you straight and tell you what it the best way either or.

Todays market for a home refi ia 5.5 to 5.25. If you got the credit rating and the equity its the way to go

that low rate is all dependent on alot of things, i have 739 score, and a pretty good debt to income ratio, and was not offered that rate,

you have to be taking out over 100k, owe essentially nothing on your 250k house, etc.......

Hard Truth
 
Thats right, Very High credit score + lots of equity = low rate
