Refinance Rates Trend in Maine

Historical rates shown for context only. See full disclosures below and current rates in the table above. View Legal Disclosures

Rates as of November 6, 2026 · Avg Maine property tax: 1.18% · Avg annual home insurance: $1,382

Today’s 30-year fixed refinance rate in Maine is 6.990% (7.339% APR), and a 15-year is 6.375% (6.966% APR). On a typical $293,000 Maine loan, that’s about $1,947 a month in principal and interest over 30 years or $2,532 over 15. These figures use a typical Maine home price of $418,200 (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 Maine?

Monthly savings on a $293,000 balance if you refinance into today’s 30-year fixed rate of 6.990% (7.339% APR), by the rate you have now. If your current rate is at or below about 6.990%, 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%	$2,049	$1,947	$101	100 months
8.000%	$2,150	$1,947	$203	50 months
8.500%	$2,253	$1,947	$306	33 months

Principal and interest only, comparing 30-year payments on the same $293,000 balance. New payment at 6.990% (7.339% APR) with 2.250 discount points. Break-even divides the points and lender fees built into that APR (about $10,044 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.

Estimated monthly cost after refinancing a loan at 70% of each city’s median home price into today’s 30-year fixed rate of 6.990% (7.339% APR), with local property taxes and homeowners insurance.

Bangor	$299,450	$210,000	$1,396	$433	$1,828

Principal and interest at 6.990% (7.339% APR) (30-year conforming refinance). Median prices from Movoto market trends, September 2026.

15-year vs. 30-year refinance in Maine

On a typical $293,000 Maine loan, a 15-year refinance costs about $585 more a month than a 30-year, but saves about $245,247 in interest over the life of the loan.

Loan term	Rate (APR)	Principal & interest	Total interest
30-year fixed	6.990% (7.339% APR)	$1,947	$408,053
15-year fixed	6.375% (6.966% APR)	$2,532	$162,806

Conforming refinance rates for Maine as of November 6, 2026. Total interest assumes you keep the loan for the full term and make every scheduled payment. Taxes and insurance are the same for either term.

Refinance options in Maine 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.

Do Portland, Lewiston or Bangor have higher conforming loan limits?

Can I refinance a VA loan in Maine?

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 Maine is 6.500% (6.853% APR) today. VA and lender requirements apply.

Having worked alongside Angel Ramos, I can say firsthand that his reputation as an elite sales professional is built on one thing: exceptional client care. In an industry like mortgage lending where trust, timing, and clear communication make a…ll the difference, Angel has always stood out as a top producer whose business was driven by word-of-mouth and repeat referrals. He never approaches sales as a one-time transaction; he treats every client interaction as a long-term partnership. He takes the time to listen, demystify complex financial details, and advocate relentlessly for the best possible outcome. Anyone navigating the loan process—whether purchasing their first home or refinancing—is in remarkably capable, honest hands with Angel. I recommend him without hesitation to any homebuyer or real estate partner looking for a dependable loan officer
