What Is a Mortgage Recast?

A mortgage recast is when you make a large payment toward your loan principal and your lender recalculates (or “recasts”) your monthly payment based on the lower balance. Unlike refinancing, there are no changes to your loan’s interest rate or term.

This makes it an attractive option for homeowners who receive a windfall (bonus, inheritance, property sale) and want to reduce their monthly mortgage obligations without going through refinancing costs.

Benefits of Using a Recast Mortgage Calculator

  • Lower monthly payments without refinancing.
  • No credit checks or appraisals (in most cases).
  • Keeps your current interest rate intact.
  • Helps manage cash flow while paying down debt faster.
Many lenders, including tools like the Rocket Mortgage Recast Calculator, offer similar estimates, but this calculator is quick, free, and easy to use.

Example: Recasting vs. Not Recasting

Suppose you have a $250,000 mortgage with 20 years left at 5% interest. If you make a $50,000 lump-sum payment and recast, your monthly payments could drop by hundreds of dollars while keeping the same loan term. Our Recast a Mortgage Calculator shows the difference instantly.
