Rates as of November 6, 2026 · Avg Georgia property tax: 0.90% · Avg annual home insurance: $3,511

Today’s 30-year fixed refinance rate in Georgia is 7.000% (7.337% APR), and a 15-year is 6.375% (6.966% APR). On a typical $246,000 Georgia loan, that’s about $1,637 a month in principal and interest over 30 years or $2,126 over 15. These figures use a typical Georgia home price of $351,300 (the average of the median prices in its largest cities) and a loan at 70% of that value. Your numbers depend on your balance, your home’s value and your credit.

How much could you save by refinancing in Georgia?

Monthly savings on a $246,000 balance if you refinance into today’s 30-year fixed rate of 7.000% (7.337% APR), by the rate you have now. If your current rate is at or below about 7.000%, a rate-and-term refinance at today’s rate won’t lower your payment; a cash-out refinance or HELOC may fit better if you need cash.

Your current rate Payment now New payment Monthly savings Break-even
7.500% $1,720 $1,637 $83 98 months
8.000% $1,805 $1,637 $168 49 months
8.500% $1,892 $1,637 $255 32 months

Principal and interest only, comparing 30-year payments on the same $246,000 balance. New payment at 7.000% (7.337% APR) with 2.125 discount points. Break-even divides the points and lender fees built into that APR (about $8,146 on this loan) by the monthly savings; title, appraisal and other third-party closing costs add to that (try our refinance break-even calculator with your own numbers). Restarting a 30-year term can mean more total interest even when the payment drops.

Refinance options in Georgia by loan type

The examples above assume you’re refinancing into a conventional loan. If you have an FHA or VA loan, owe more than the conforming limit, or want to take cash out, one of these options may fit better.

If you have an FHA loan

FHA streamline refinance

Refinance an existing FHA loan with limited credit documentation and often no appraisal. FHA mortgage insurance still applies.

If you have a VA loan

VA IRRRL

The VA’s Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan lowers your rate with less paperwork than a standard refinance, with no monthly mortgage insurance.

If you owe more than $832,750

Jumbo refinance

A balance above the county’s 2026 conforming loan limit refinances into a jumbo loan.

If you need cash

Cash-out refinance or HELOC

A cash-out refinance replaces your loan with a larger one and pays you the difference. A HELOC lets you borrow against your equity and keep your current rate.

Georgia refinance FAQs

What are refinance rates in Georgia today?

As of November 6, 2026, Lower’s 30-year fixed refinance rate in Georgia is 7.000% (7.337% APR) and the 15-year is 6.375% (6.966% APR). FHA refinances start at 6.490% (7.400% APR) and VA refinances at 6.500% (6.853% APR). Your rate depends on your credit, equity, loan amount and points.

When does refinancing make sense in Georgia?

When the monthly savings pay back your closing costs before you sell or refinance again. On a typical $246,000 Georgia loan, going from 8.000% to today’s 7.000% (7.337% APR) saves about $168 a month, and the points and lender fees in today’s quote (about $8,146) take about 49 months to recover. Compare the new term too: restarting at 30 years can add interest even when the payment drops.

Do Atlanta, Columbus or Savannah have higher conforming loan limits?

No. Every Georgia county uses the same $832,750 limit for a one-unit home in 2026. A refinance above the limit is a jumbo loan, priced today at 6.875% (7.131% APR) for 30 years.

Can I refinance a VA loan in Georgia?

Yes. If your current mortgage is VA-backed, a VA Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL) can lower your rate with less paperwork than a standard refinance. Lower’s 30-year VA refinance rate in Georgia is 6.500% (6.853% APR) today. VA and lender requirements apply.

Dyan was amazing throughout my entire homebuying process. She was professional, knowledgeable, communicative, and always kept me informed. Even through the challenges, she never gave up and continued working until we made it to the closing tabl…e. I truly appreciate every call, text, update, and everything she did behind the scenes. I couldn’t have asked for a better loan officer, and if I had to do it all over again, I would choose Dyan without hesitation. Thank you for helping me become a homeowner!

Dyan is absolutely amazing. She stepped in and took over a loan approval when my client and I were unsatisfied with the previously choosen lender. Not only was she able to close the loan when the other lender couldn't due to inex…perience and lack of proper lending training, she was able to have an improper appraisal reversed, valued of the property to be accurately re-recorded on an FHA loan, she git us to the closing table. She communicated effectively with myself as well as my client and was able to remain calm , collective, professional
