Today’s 30-year fixed refinance rate in Michigan is 7.000% (7.326% APR), and a 15-year is 6.375% (6.970% APR). On a typical $182,000 Michigan loan, that’s about $1,211 a month in principal and interest over 30 years or $1,573 over 15. These figures use a typical Michigan home price of $260,000 (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 Michigan?
Monthly savings on a $182,000 balance if you refinance into today’s 30-year fixed rate of 7.000% (7.326% 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% | $1,273 | $1,211 | $62 | 95 months |
| 8.000% | $1,335 | $1,211 | $125 | 47 months |
| 8.500% | $1,399 | $1,211 | $189 | 31 months |
Principal and interest only, comparing 30-year payments on the same $182,000 balance. New payment at 7.000% (7.326% APR) with 2.000 discount points. Break-even divides the points and lender fees built into that APR (about $5,835 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 Michigan 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.
FHA streamline refinance
Refinance an existing FHA loan with limited credit documentation and often no appraisal. FHA mortgage insurance still applies.
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.
Jumbo refinance
A balance above the county’s 2026 conforming loan limit refinances into a jumbo loan.
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.
Michigan refinance FAQs
What are refinance rates in Michigan today?
As of November 6, 2026, Lower’s 30-year fixed refinance rate in Michigan is 7.000% (7.326% APR) and the 15-year is 6.375% (6.970% APR). FHA refinances start at 6.490% (7.403% APR) and VA refinances at 6.500% (6.842% APR). Your rate depends on your credit, equity, loan amount and points.
When does refinancing make sense in Michigan?
When the monthly savings pay back your closing costs before you sell or refinance again. On a typical $182,000 Michigan loan, going from 8.000% to today’s 7.000% (7.326% APR) saves about $125 a month, and the points and lender fees in today’s quote (about $5,835) take about 47 months to recover. Compare the new term too: restarting at 30 years can add interest even when the payment drops.
Do Detroit, Grand Rapids or Warren have higher conforming loan limits?
No. Every Michigan 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 Michigan?
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 Michigan is 6.500% (6.842% APR) today. VA and lender requirements apply.
