VA Mortgage Refinancing

Housing Assistance

Share this Page

More and more Veterans who own homes are using VA’s mortgage refinancing options to conserve cash through lower interest rates — or take advantage of their home’s equity to pay for school, debt, or home improvements. The following programs may be available to qualifying Veterans:

Cash-Out Refinance Home Loans - Take advantage of your home’s equity to take cash out through refinancing, or refinance a non-VA loan into a VA-guaranteed loan.
Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loans - See if you can lower your monthly mortgage payment by obtaining a lower-interest loan — or stabilize your monthly payments by moving from a loan with an adjustable interest rate to one that’s fixed.

Explore more about VA refinancing and interest rate reduction programs and see if one of these options is right for you.
