Great News – 100% VA Cash Out Refinances Now Available!

Update! – November 19th, 2012

• Maximum loan to value for cash-out transaction where the veteran pay offs an existing mortgage and other consumer debts through the closing is 100% of the appraised value of your home.

This does not allow cash in hand but will allow you to pay off credit cards, car loans or any other consumer debt as long as the pay offs are handled by the title company.

The VA Loan guidelines consider a VA Refinance to be cash out even if you’re not receiving cash back at closing or paying off non-mortgage debt if you’re not doing a VA IRRRL.

In most cases lenders will limit your new VA Loan to 90% of your home’s appraised value even though the actual VA guidelines allow up to 100%! For example; If your home appraises for $300,000.00, the maximum loan amount would be $270,000.00 or 90% of $300,000.00.

Now let’s say you just want to refinance your current non VA Loan to a new VA Loan. Under the VA guidelines this would be considered a cash out refinance and limited to 90% of the appraised value due to lender guidelines.

The good news is we now have that ability to refinance an existing non VA Loan in to a new VA Loan at 100% of the appraised value!
