VA Streamline Refinance Home Loan

 

 

 

The VA streamline refinance home loan also known as an interest rate reduction loan is a government backed mortgage program for active duty and prior service veterans. This program is a fast, simple and hassle free way to refinance your current VA home loan to a lower interest rate. Credit qualifying is not required. This means that even if you have bad credit, as long as you have not had more than 1 thirty day late mortgage payment in the last 12 months, you will still be eligible for a VA streamline refinance. 

 

Not only is credit qualifying not required for the VA streamline refinance program but  income documentation, job verification and appraisals are not required either.

 

The VA fixed loan rate is at an historic low so if you currently have an adjustable rate mortgage, now is the perfect time to refinance into a permanent fixed-rate. Currently, the maximum VA streamline refinance home loan amount is $417,000.
