I estimate your current payment to be $2573.81 and after 7.5 years of payments your current payment should have aprx $1697.67 principal and $876 interest. A refinance of $190,000 at 3.25% on a 10 Year Fixed, with an additional principal payment of $717 each month would equal the same payment you make now and payoff in 82.5 payments ( starting with principal of $2059 & interest of $514), saving aprx $19K minus closing costs. Since you are paying the Prime rate on the Heloc, I would recommend combining the 2 loans if the home will appraise for $510K or more. The Heloc will definitely go up in the future and no reason not to lock the current rate in now at 3.25% and avoid the increases and wasted interest payments.



Advice needed on whether to refinance HELOC only, since first mortgage is halfway paid off.
