Taking steps toward refinancing a rental property
I have a rental property that I bought five years ago for $170,000 but now is valued at $120,000. I have a mortgage at 6.75 percent with about $45,000 in equity on the property. I am not in financial difficulty, but I would like to take advantage of low interest rates. Is it possible to refinance my rental home? If so, any tips would be appreciated.
