ANNUAL MORTGAGE REVIEW
Your next move starts with a check-in.
You do not need to refinance to have a useful mortgage conversation. Sometimes the best result of a review is a clearer reason to keep the loan you have.
Prefer to talk through your questions first? Call 303-931-6798 or contact our team. The button below opens our secure loan inquiry. If we need your mortgage statement, we will provide a secure document channel.
Start with the loan you have. An annual review connects your current mortgage with your goals. Consider a new loan only when the full comparison supports it.
A mortgage review compares the current loan with your goals and practical alternatives. Bring the payment, balance, remaining term, mortgage insurance and upcoming plans. A new loan should earn its place in the comparison.
When the current loan still fits
When cash flow or goals change
Only after comparing full costs
Balance, rate, remaining term, insurance and any second lien.
Moving, renovating, retirement or a change in income.
Keep the loan, review PMI, consider additional payments or compare new financing.
Cederholm Mortgage Advisors can organize the costs, payment, remaining balance and repayment timeline around your goals. We’ll also identify any questions that need input from your servicer or tax adviser.
Bring your current statement and questions. We’ll review the loan you have and explain whether keeping it, adjusting your repayment plan or exploring new financing may fit your next step.
No. Keeping the current loan is one of the options to evaluate.
We can help identify your mortgage insurance type and the questions to ask. Conventional private mortgage insurance (PMI) and FHA mortgage insurance follow different rules. Your servicer determines cancellation eligibility under the rules that apply to your loan and may require supporting documentation. An annual review does not itself remove mortgage insurance.
A current statement, insurance or escrow questions, details of other liens and your goals for the next few years.
Information is educational and is not a loan offer, rate quote, approval or commitment to lend. Programs, costs and qualification requirements depend on the borrower, property, selected lender and current guidelines. Hypothetical examples are not client testimonials or guaranteed results.
You do not need to refinance to have a useful mortgage conversation. Sometimes the best result of a review is a clearer reason to keep the loan you have.
A review can support keeping the current loan. Use the same facts when comparing it with any proposed change.
| What to record | Your notes |
|---|---|
| Current mortgage | Balance, rate, payment components, remaining term and mortgage insurance. |
| Other home-secured debt | Record a second mortgage or HELOC and its repayment terms. |
| Your goal and timing | Identify the problem to solve and how long you expect to keep the home or loan. |
| Costs of changing | Separate transaction costs from prepaid items, escrow funds and any cash received. |
| Compare at the same date | Ask for payments, costs, interest and remaining balance over your intended timeline. |
Bring your statement through our secure channel and tell us what changed. We can compare keeping the loan, a servicer PMI review or new financing where it serves a clear goal.

What happens next? The button below opens our secure loan inquiry. Tell us your goal and timing so we can discuss the relevant costs, documents and options. Prefer a conversation first? Call 303-931-6798 or contact our team. Share sensitive documents only through the secure channel we provide. A conversation is not a loan approval or commitment.
A refinance should solve a real problem or support a clear goal. We compare your current mortgage with the alternatives, including costs, loan term, cash access and the time you expect to keep the new loan.
Leverage your home equity and use the appreciation value in your real estate for home improvements and remodeling, start a business, buy a second home, future investments, and more.
Use the equity in your home to consolidate your household debts to reduce your overall monthly payments and save on high interest costs from credit cards, helocs, and more by refinancing to a lower blended interest rate.
Compare the same pieces
A lower payment is useful only when you understand what changed. This illustration keeps the loan balance, remaining term and other payment components the same, then shows a $150 reduction in principal and interest.

We started the process in June and closed in November because we were indecisive and Paul was patient, he heard our request and never pushed us to buy until we were comfortable with our purchase. Luckily, he waited on us and we closed on the perfect home. We loved his 24/7 availability for us even on his vacation days. Thanks for an amazing work !

My wife and I worked with Paul when purchasing our first and second home. He was recommended to us from a trusted friend so we decided to go with him when trying to find the best loan for us.

Questions worth asking
Compare the costs with the benefit you want: lower payments, a different term, cash access or a change in loan structure. Simple break-even is one check. We also look at remaining term, total interest, cash to close and how long you expect to keep the loan.
No. Extending the repayment term can lower the payment while increasing total interest. Financing closing costs also adds to the balance. We can compare the new loan with keeping your current mortgage on consistent assumptions.
If you like your first-mortgage rate, a separate home equity loan or HELOC may be worth comparing. A cash-out refinance replaces the first loan. Our team can compare blended borrowing costs, payment changes and the flexibility you need.
Yes. A refinance can focus on rate, term or another financing goal. Eligibility, mortgage insurance, appraisal requirements and costs depend on the selected program. Tell us what you want the refinance to accomplish.
Bring your current statement, interest rate, estimated balance, remaining term, home value estimate and goal. Share your starting details and our team can outline the documents needed for your situation.
*Information, scenarios, and calculations are for educational and illustrative purposes only, not a loan offer, a commitment to lend, a rate quote or an approval. Programs, costs and qualification requirements depend on the borrower, property, selected lender and current guidelines. Examples are not guaranteed results.
