March 23, 2015 by Kathy Sollien

Many people decide to expand rather than purchasing a bigger home. The wonderful thing about additions is the ability to customize and make it match your personal requirements. Knowing ways for financing home renovations in Bennington are helpful. The following are some to evaluate.

Refinance An Existing Mortgage

Refinance an existing mortgage is a common way to pull out some equity without keeping more than one loan.
