Financing for Veterans
Thank you for your service! Stanford Capital would be honored to serve you!
VA Loans.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) guarantees loans provided by Stanford Capital to help qualified veterans, reservists, and active-duty service members finance their homes.
VA loans offer these features:
A no down payment option.
Flexible income, debt and credit requirements to help borrowers qualify.
Down payment and closing costs that may be funded by a gift, grant or secured loan.
A variety of fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loan options from Florida Home Finance Group.
VA IRRRL Refinance.
A VA Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL) will lower the interest rate on your existing VA home loan, decreasing your monthly mortgage payment.
IRRRL Facts:
No appraisal or credit underwriting package is required when applying for an IRRRL.
An IRRRL may be done with no money out of pocket.
When refinancing from an existing VA ARM loan to a fixed rate loan, the interest rate may increase.
You may NOT receive any cash from the loan proceeds.
Eligibility:
An IRRRL can only be made to refinance a property on which you have already used your VA loan eligibility. It must be a VA to VA refinance, and it will reuse the entitlement you originally used.
A Certificate of Eligibility (COE) is not required. If you have your Certificate of Eligibility, take it to the lender to show the prior use of your entitlement.
No loan other than the existing VA loan may be paid from the proceeds of an IRRRL. If you have a second mortgage, the holder must agree to subordinate that lien so that your new VA loan will be a first mortgage.
You may have used your entitlement by obtaining a VA loan when you bought your house, or by substituting your eligibility for that of the seller, if you assumed the loan.
VA Funding Fee:
You do not have to pay the fee if you are:
Veteran receiving VA compensation for a service-connected disability.
Veteran who would be entitled to receive compensation for a service-connected disability if you did not receive retirement or active duty pay, OR
Surviving spouse of a Veteran who died in service or from a service-connected disability.
