I am trying to figure out if I should keep my current mortagage at 5% and a
balance of 400000.00 or refinance and pull the equity out of it and have a
new mortagage of 650000.00? Trying to compare my current costs to the new
costs like the tax rate etc.
 
use excel to calculate year by year interest and capital repayments
Factor in inflation at 2, 3, and 5%.

repeat with new amount borrowed and new term.

compare interest paid etc

guess the capital appreciation on your property

in the UK it is 10% per year

figure out how to cash in on the vast profits made - only possible i
you live in an "expensive" area and sell up and move to a "cheap
area.

I did this 37 years ago on an IBM 1170 mainframe when your program wa
handwritten and transcribed onto green paper tape, and run when you
slot came up, we took it in turns. Inevitably, there was an error i
the program and you had to figure out where it was and correct it, an
wait for another slot. Inevitably there was another error in th
programme........
