Refinance
Cash out from your equity is tax free and can be used for almost any purpose. Consolidate debts. Home improvement. Education expenses. Travel.
Has your credit score improved since you purchased your home? Do you have Mortgage Insurance on a FHA loan that you wish to have removed? You may qualify for a new loan with better terms.
Many families have changes that require planning about what to do with the home. Changing who is on Title is one common need. Changing the Deed, to add or subtract someone on title, doesn't change who is liable on the loan for the property. To do that you need to refinance. There are recent changes that make this easier when you want to transfer the ownership and also have a mortgage in the name of the new person.
