This refinancing mistake can ruin your next purchase
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When refinancing first makes sense and when it can backfire.
In this episode of The Brokers’ Lounge, Eddie and Carlo break down when refinancing before your next property purchase actually makes sense, and when it can quietly work against you. They unpack how equity release, lender policy, servicing, and timing all play a role in whether refinancing helps or hurts your next move.
They also cover the common mistakes people make, like chasing a better rate without looking at the bigger picture, taking on new debt at the wrong time, or refinancing too early without a clear purchase plan. If you’re thinking about using equity to buy again, this episode will help you understand the strategy, the risks, and how to approach it properly.
