Template
Evaluate whether refinancing the existing debt described in {current_debt} into the offered terms in {new_terms} makes financial sense. Reason stepwise: (1) State the remaining balance, rate, remaining term, and current payment of the existing obligation. (2) State the new rate, term, payment, and all transaction costs — origination, appraisal, prepayment penalties on the old debt — as a single upfront figure. (3) Compute monthly payment savings and the simple breakeven: costs divided by monthly savings, in months. (4) Correct the naive comparison: if the new term is longer, compute total interest over each full schedule, since lower payments can still cost more in total. (5) Compare against the borrower's expected holding period — refinancing rarely pays if exit precedes breakeven. (6) State the recommendation and the holding-period threshold at which it reverses.
