Glossary Refinancing. A refinancing is any dwelling-secured<br />

loan that replaces and satisfies<br />

another dwelling-secured loan <strong>to</strong><br />

the same borrower. The purpose of the<br />

loan being refinanced is not relevant <strong>to</strong><br />

determining whether the new loan is a<br />

refinancing for <strong>HMDA</strong> purposes. Nor is<br />

the borrower’s intended use of any additional<br />

cash borrowed relevant <strong>to</strong> determining<br />

whether the loan is a refinancing,<br />

though the borrower’s intended use of<br />

the funds could make the transaction a<br />

home improvement loan or a home purchase<br />

loan. See the definitions of “home<br />

purchase loan” and “home improvement<br />

loan.” Also see the rule on multipurpose<br />

loans on page 12.<br />
