Depends on how low and what your down payment and income are like. Best way to find out is go to a mortgage broker and ask. You could also fill in an application online (Eloan, illness or somewhere – do the rate search in eLoan if you go there) and see what they say.

Question by micky: Can you refinance if you only have Social Security Income?
I only receive Social Security income plus about $ 400, price 00 a month from a person I rent a room to. Will a lender count this as income for refinancing purposes? I have excellent credit – no late mortgages and good cash reserves. I need to get rid of an adjustable mortgage.

Your Social Security is income but is it enough. Call the current lender and ask. Also check with your bank
