D’s Mom asked:


I’m in financial ruin and I think my only and last option is to refinance my home loan. I need the extra money to catch up on bills after changing jobs and unexpected medical expenses. (I didn’t have insurance for 6 months from changing jobs and then I was sick and had big bills) I am about to lose my home if I don’t do something quick. I believe I’ve exhausted all other options. You opionion and ideas would be great. Thanks

I bought my house a year ago, and put 3% down. We took out an 80% first mortgage and 20% second mortgage. Our second mortgage is adjusting and keeps going up every month. I do not want to pay Private Mortgage Insurance, but also do not want to keep seeing my payment go up. How do I find out if I have 20% equity in the house? Should I refinance it?
