VA Cash Out Refinance

VA cash out refinancing programs with highest LTV.

Veterans are entitled to the best cash out refinance loan available in the entire mortgage marketplace. This includes the option to cash out up to 100% of your equity. This is a substantial perk considering non-veterans are only eligible to cash out to a max LTV of 80% through an FHA loan, or 80% through a conventional loan. There are several special incentives that make VA mortgages the best cash out loans available.

Benefits of a VA Cash Out Refinance Loan:

Up to 100% Financing (some will be limited to 90% LTV).
Structure loan to pay no out of pocket costs.
Special low interest rates.
No private mortgage insurance.
No prepayment penalties.
Minimal documentation requirements.
Flexible credit requirements for borrowers with “fair” credit.
