What Is A VA Cash-Out Refinance?

A VA cash-out refinance can be a useful tool in accessing the equity in a home if you fit the criteria!

 

Here is why a VA cash-out refinance may be beneficial for you!

 

What Does It Mean To Do A VA Cash-Out Refinance?

 

 

A VA cash-out refinance basically refers to a refinance program for those who meet the criteria where you may be able to access 100% of the appraised value of your home.  By using a VA cash-out refinance, you may be able to use that money to pay off debts, fund home improvements, or take a conventional loan and turn it into a VA loan.  The benefits of a VA loan are extremely useful to some and may offer better terms.  

 

If you decide to turn your conventional loan into a VA loan via this refinancing program, the money taken out can be used to pay off any other expenses that you may have.

 

How Does A VA Cash-Out Refinance Work?

 

With VA loans being government-backed, the risk for lenders becomes very minimal.  Because the risk is minimal, lenders may be able to offer more favorable terms on VA loans.  Applying for a VA cash-out refinance is easily comparable to applying for a conventional loan.  

 

Do You Qualify?

 

 

You may think that you already need to have a VA loan to apply for a VA cash-out refinance, however, this is not the case.  In order to qualify for this VA financing, you will need to qualify for a VA loan.  

 

The minimum requirements on the application for a VA loan include:

 

• Minimum service of 90 days during war or 181 days of peace  
• Being a spouse survived of a veteran who died on duty
• Six or more years of being in the National Guard
