Thinking of Refinancing?
The Veterans Administration offers Interest Rate Reduction Refinancing Loans also known as Streamline Refinances.
Interest Rate Reduction Refinancing Loans
With this loan you are not able to take cash out but you can reduce your current interest rate.
For example your current rate is 6.75% on a 30 year fixed rate mortgage
Your loan amount is $130,000 Payment is $843.00
- You want to do a VA IRRRL- the rate you can obtain now is 6.00%.
- You can reduce your payment by $64.00 Which would save you $768 a year
- And $23,040.00 saved throughout the life of the loan.
To qualify for a VA IRRRL you must meet the following guideline:
