FHA Streamline
The basic requirements of an FHA streamline refinance are:
- Your existing loan must be an FHA loan.
- Your loan must be up to date and current on all payments in order to refinance (e.g. not in a delinquent status).
- There must be a real benefit for you to refinance, such as a reduction in interest rate/monthly payment or in the new loan term.
- You cannot receive cash-out in excess of $500 using the streamline refinance process.
VA Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan
The basic requirements of a VA streamline refinance are:
- Your existing loan must be a VA loan.
- Your loan must be up to date and current on all payments in order to refinance (e.g. not in a delinquent status).
- There must be a Net-Tangible Benefit (NTB), as determined by VA guidelines for you to refinance, such as a reduction in interest rate/monthly payment or in the new loan term.
- You cannot receive cash-out in excess of $500 using the streamline refinance process.
It is important to note that a “streamline refinance” refers to the type of documentation and underwriting required and not the cost or structure of the loan itself. You will still need escrow and title work, county recording, and other required services to close your new loan. Since the FHA and VA do not allow closing costs to be rolled into the new loan amount on a streamline refinance, these must still be accounted for either with a credit from the interest rate you choose or out-of-pocket.
