The FHA Streamline Refinance program allows home owners with current FHA loans to refinance with NO income documentation, NO asset documentation, and NO appraisal. 


FHA 30 year fixed Streamline Refinance Rates are at an ALL TIME low 4.5%.  ****UPDATE 11/26/2009 - There has been a change and the minimum credit score for the FHA streamline refinance loan is 640.  FHA streamline refinance rates for a 640 credit score are extremely low now and the FHA streamline refinance loan enables many borrowers to refinance to a lower rate with no qualifying documentation. 

Mortgage payments over the last 6 months must have 0 payments that have gone over 30 days late.  The 6 months prior to that can have 1x30 day late payment max in order to be able to refinance under the FHA Streamline Refinance program.

FHA Streamline Refina
ncing:
FHA does not place any limitations or restrictions on the amount of times you can refinance under the FHA Streamline Refinance Program as long as it makes sense and benefits you. 

Since there is very little paperwork and NO credit qualifying, NO debt to income ratios, and NO appraisal it is very simple and easy.  This makes any savings worth while on a new lower 30 year fixed FHA Streamline Refinance Rate.

FHA limits the new loan amount on the FHA Streamline refinance to the balance of the loan being refinanced + the new up front mortgage insurance premium - any refund of the old up front mortgage insurance premium.  The maximum loan amount on the new FHA streamline refinance is easily determined by the professionals at www.mychartermtg.com/FHA-Streamline-Rates.html

With home values plummeting over the last 3 years the FHA Streamline Refinance is an excellent option for many home owners with current FHA loans.  Taking the appraisal out of the equation eliminates not
only time and money ($400 - $450) for an FHA appraisal, but also valuation issues that arise due to lack of comparable sales or even an overabundance of foreclosure sales in the immediate area.

Jeff, what are your FHA streamline rates at today? Are there points or extra fees with the FHA streamline loan? My credit score is just over 640 according to the mortgage broker I am working with on my refinance. Does this make the rate higher from FHA? They have increased my rate from 5.25 to 5.5 because my score is less than 680. Does FHA do that? thanks.

Hello Audrey, the fha streamline rate for 30 year fixed today is 5.0%. There is an adjustment to the price - not the rate - for the credit score less than 660 and is 1/4 point. The credit score adjustments are from secondary marketing, not FHA. FHA does not set the rate or the price or the closing costs on the loan. The rate is still 5.0% with my company. There are no points with this rate but there are adjustments for loan amounts less than $75,000. Please visit my web site at http://www.mychartermtg.com and mention that you came from this blog for a discount on closing costs. thanks.
