VA streamline refinance. Less paperwork, a better VA loan
If your loan today is a VA loan, the Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL) is built to move you into a better one. We shop it with 130+ lenders.
What an IRRRL is
The IRRRL, often called a VA streamline, refinances the VA loan you already have into a new VA loan, usually to lower your rate and monthly payment.
It can also move you from an adjustable rate to a fixed rate, and closing costs can be rolled into the new loan.
Who it fits
- Veterans, service members and surviving spouses with a VA loan today
