Brian 指出房屋贷款是人生中最大的一笔开销,通常需要贷款来完成。在选择房屋贷款时,需要考虑固定利率贷款和可调利率贷款的优缺点。固定利率贷款在贷款期限内支付固定的利率,而可调利率贷款的利率会随市场波动。在历史低利率时期,固定利率贷款通常是更好的选择,但在高利率时期,可调利率贷款可能更有吸引力。可调利率贷款更适用于短期投资房产或过渡性住房。降低房贷利率的方法包括再融资和贷款修改。在考虑再融资之前,应该先尝试联系现有贷款机构进行贷款修改,这通常比再融资更便宜快捷。再融资通常有两种类型:现金提取再融资和利率/期限再融资。现金提取再融资在高利率环境下并非明智之举,除非用于投资其他房产。利率/期限再融资则用于降低利率和重置贷款期限。进行现金提取再融资时需谨慎,因为它可能会增加财务风险。当当前的抵押贷款利率比市场利率高出一个百分点时,可以考虑开始研究再融资。在决定是否再融资时,需要进行收支平衡分析,以确定节省的利息是否能够在合理的时间内抵消再融资的成本。通过计算再融资的盈亏平衡点,可以判断再融资是否值得。
