The White House will host a Google+ Hangout to answer consumer questions about refinancing options, with the participation of Zillow (NASDAQ: Z), a leading real estate information marketplace.

According to Zillow, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Shaun Donovan, Zillow CEO Spencer Rascoff (pictured left) as moderator and several homeowners will participate in the discussion.

Donovan will discuss current and proposed refinancing options, and how those options can help responsible homeowners take advantage of today’s low interest rates.

In addition to answering questions from the participating homeowners, Zillow and the Obama administration are soliciting questions about refinancing from the general public.

Consumers can ask questions via a special tab on Zillow’s Facebook page or through Twitter, using hashtag #WHHangout.

Consumers can ask questions about refinancing options, such as the Home Affordable Refinancing Program, and President Obama’s proposed streamlined refinance for responsible homeowners.
