How Mortgage Refinancing Works
When you refinance, your current loan gets paid off and replaced with a new one which has different terms. In the transaction, several things about your loan could change including your interest rate, the length of your loan, the loan balance itself and even the type of loan you have.
In a refinance, a payoff check is issued by the lender handling your new loan to the originator of your current loan. When that happens, your relationship with the old lender ends and your new lender takes over from that point forward.
