      Hi Ray,

      Thanks for reaching out to Finder.

      Yes, there are costs involved with refinancing your loan, including lender fees and government charges. There definitely are cases where refinancing will cost you more so make sure to compare your options and review the relevant Product Disclosure Statements/Terms and Conditions. See our Refinance home loans page. On the page, is a comparison table you can use to see which lender is right for you. Once you have chosen a particular lender, you may then click on the “Go to site” button and you will be redirected to the lender’s website where you can proceed with your loan application or get in touch with their representatives for further assistance.

      Best Regards,
      Joanne
