What is a VA Streamline Refinance?

Looking to refinance your VA loan? A VA loan streamline refinance might be the best option for you. It's a fast and affordable way to refinance your VA loan with no credit score requirement, income verification or bank account verification. Also called the Interest Rate Reduction Refinancing Loan (IRRRL), it allows both active service members as well as veterans to refinance their VA loan with the least amount of hassle possible.

Is a Streamline Refinance Worth the Process?

Your loan officer can spell out all the paperwork and help you decide if a streamline refinance is right for your situation. If your streamline loan rate is not 1-2% lower than your existing VA loan, it might not be worth changing loans. 

Can I Use a VA Streamline on an Investment Property?

Yes, although you need to certify that you've previously used the property as your home. The VA streamline refinance is a VA to VA loan, and residency requirements are a little different. However, qualifying is easier if you are the primary resident.

Do I Need my Certificate of Eligibility (COE) for a VA Streamline Refinance?

No, since you needed to provide a Certificate of Eligibility for your original VA loan you won't need to provide it again for your refinance. The new loan "piggybacks" on the existing eligibility.
