Refinance opportunity

4 live charges · 2 lenders · oldest 23.5y

50/100
clean up first

Refinance viable after a tidy-up — address the highlighted items first.

  • · Oldest live charge is 23.5 years old — likely at or near maturity.
  • · Two lenders — manageable, but coordination required.
  • · Legal-friction score 28/100 — workable, but lender will want more DD.
