Why Georgetown Homeowners Refinance with Perera Law

  • Lender instruction and document review: We review your new lender’s instructions, verify the interest rate, term, and prepayment terms, and explain the fine print before you sign.
  • Updated title and execution searches: We run fresh registry searches to confirm no new liens, judgments, or arrears have appeared that could block your new charge.
  • Payout and discharge of your existing mortgage: We obtain the payout statement from your current lender, arrange payment of the old balance, and register the formal discharge.
  • Equity disbursement: Once your new mortgage is registered, we release net equity proceeds to you or direct them to consolidate the debts your refinance was designed to clear.
  • Tight timeline management: Lender funding dates are strict. We process your file efficiently so rate holds and closing dates are honoured.

Key Documents We Prepare and Review for Refinancing

  • New charge and mortgage documents: The legal security for your replacement loan, reviewed to confirm the terms match your lender’s commitment.
  • Lender instruction package: The funding conditions from your new lender, which we satisfy one by one before registration.
  • Payout statement from your current lender: The official figure required to retire your existing mortgage in full.
  • Discharge of the old charge: The registration removing your previous lender’s claim from title.
  • Title search results: Current registry records proving your title is clear for the new charge to be registered.

Common Questions: View all FAQ

  • Q1. Do I need a lawyer to refinance my home in Georgetown?

    Yes. Refinancing replaces your existing mortgage with a new one, and a lawyer must discharge the old mortgage, register the new one on title, and run a fresh title search. Lenders require this legal work before they fund the new mortgage.

  • Q2. What is required for a mortgage refinance?

    Your new lender will ask for income verification, property details, and a current mortgage statement. Your lawyer will need photo identification, your property tax bill, and your existing mortgage information to prepare the discharge and registration.

  • Q3. Will my lawyer run a new title search even though I already own the home?

    Yes. A fresh title search confirms no new liens, executions, or registrations have appeared on title since your purchase. Lenders require this updated search before they will fund a new mortgage.

  • Q4. How long does a refinance take in Georgetown?

    It depends on your lender's approval timeline and how quickly documents are ready. Once your application is approved and we have your mortgage statement, tax bill, and identification, we move the legal work forward without delay and keep you updated throughout.
