- Your current mortgages principle balance: This is the balance of your current mortgage at the point of refinancing.
- Your current amount of principle and interest monthly mortgage repayments.

- The total reduction in your monthly payment as a result of refinancing.

- The total interest you will pay under both the current mortgage and the refinancing option.
