When Auto Refinancing Makes Sense
How to Get the Best Refinance Rate

Wann Lohnenswert

Umschuldung lohnt bei: 1%+ Zinsdifferenz UND 12+ Monate Restlaufzeit. 20.000 € Restschuld, von 5% auf 3%, 24 Monate: ~800 € Ersparnis. Vorfaelligkeitsentschaedigung: max. 1% der Restschuld (bei 12+ Monaten Rest) oder 0,5% (unter 12 Monaten).

Praxis

Sondertilgung ist oft besser als Umschuldung — keine Gebuehren. Viele Autokredite erlauben kostenlose Sondertilgung.
