С 01.01.2016 года значение ставки рефинансирования ЦБ РФ приравнено к значению ключевой ставки Банка России на соответствующую дату. С 01.01.2016 самостоятельное значение ставки рефинансирования не устанавливается и на сайте Банка России не показывается.

Ставка рефинансирования /Ключевая ставка/ Банка России на сегодня, т.е. с 27.04.2020 г. — 5,50%, а с 22.06.2020 г. — 4,5%.. Очередной Совет директоров Банка России, состоявшийся 19 июня 2020 года принял решение снизить ключевую ставку на 100 б.п., до 4,50% годовых. Данная ставка будет пока действовать до 24 июля 2020 года.

А так как после 31.12.2015 года значение ставки рефинансирования соответствует ключевой ставки и отдельно Банком России не устанавливается, то начиная с 22 июня 2020 г. ставка рефинансирования также составит 4,50%.

Предыдущая ключевая ставка Банка России составляла 5,50% и срок её действия продлился чуть менее двух месяцев (с 27 апреля 2020 года по 21 июня 2020 года).

Предыдущая неофициальная ставка рефинансирования также действовала с 27 апреля 2020 года по 21 июня 2020 года и соответствовала ключевой ставке этого периода (5,50% годовых).

Последняя официально установленная Банком России ставка рефинансирования действовала с 14 сентября 2012 г. по 31 декабря 2015 г. и составляла 8,25% годовых.

Переход на ключевую ставку произведён Советом Директоров Банка России, что изложено в Указании Банка России от 11.12.2015 № 3894-У «О ставке рефинансирования Банка России и ключевой ставке Банка России»).

Ставка рефинансирования ЦБ РФ на июнь — июль 2020 года

19 июня 2020 года Совет директоров Банка России принял решение снизить ключевую ставку на 100 б.п., до 4,50% годовых. Ставка рефинансирования (неофициальная) также снижается до уровне 4,50% годовых.

Дезинфляционные факторы действуют сильнее, чем ожидалось ранее, в связи с большей длительностью ограничительных мер в России и в мире. Влияние краткосрочных проинфляционных факторов в основном исчерпано. Риски для финансовой стабильности, связанные с ситуацией на глобальных финансовых рынках, уменьшились. Инфляционные ожидания населения и бизнеса снизились. В этих условиях существует риск значимого отклонения инфляции вниз от цели 4% в 2021 году. Принятое решение по ключевой ставке направлено на ограничение этого риска и удержание инфляции вблизи 4%.

Принимая решение о снижении ключевой ставки/ставки рефинансирования до уровня 4,50%, Совет директоров Банка России исходил из следующего:

Динамика инфляциив этом году и в первой половине 2021 года будет во многом формироваться под влиянием произошедшего в II квартале глубокого падения внутреннего и внешнего спроса. Дезинфляционное влияние слабого спроса усилилось, что связано с текущими и отложенными экономическими эффектами ограничений. Инфляционные ожидания населения и бизнеса снизились после краткосрочного роста в марте—апреле.

Влияние на цены произошедшего в марте ослабления рубля и временного повышенного спроса на отдельные группы товаров исчерпано. По предварительным данным на 15 июня, годовая инфляция составила около 3,1%. В ближайшие месяцы динамику потребительских цен будет дополнительно сдерживать укрепление рубля, наблюдавшееся в мае — начале июня на фоне стабилизации мировых финансовых рынков и роста цен на нефть. Текущая месячная инфляция в годовом выражении продолжит снижаться. В то же время показатель годовой инфляции будет увеличиваться в 2020 году из-за эффекта низкой базы 2019 года.

В условиях преобладающего влияния дезинфляционных факторов существует риск значимого отклонения инфляции вниз от цели 4% в 2021 году. Принятое решение по ключевой ставке направлено на ограничение этого риска и удержание годовой инфляции вблизи 4%.

Денежно-кредитные условия, после некоторого ужесточения в марте—апреле, несколько смягчились в мае—июне. Доходности ОФЗ и корпоративных облигаций опустились ниже уровней начала текущего года, в том числе под влиянием проводимой денежно-кредитной политики. Страновая премия за риск уменьшилась во многом под влиянием улучшения ситуации на глобальных финансовых и товарных рынках. Снизились процентные ставки по депозитам и ипотечным жилищным кредитам. Вместе с тем возросшие кредитные риски в реальном секторе оказывают повышательное давление на процентные ставки, а также приводят к ужесточению неценовых условий кредитования в ряде сегментов рынка. Принятые Банком России решения о снижении ключевой ставки и произошедшее существенное уменьшение доходностей на рынке ОФЗ создают условия для снижения процентных ставок на других сегментах финансового рынка в дальнейшем. Это наряду с мерами Правительства, а также другими мерами Банка России поддержит кредитование, в том числе в наиболее уязвимых секторах экономики.

Экономическая активность. Часть принятых ограничительных мер продолжает действовать. Наряду с существенным падением внешнего спроса это оказывает более длительное негативное влияние на экономическую активность, чем Банк России предполагал в апреле. Произошло существенное снижение деловой активности в сфере услуг и промышленности, сокращение объемов новых заказов на внешнем и внутреннем рынках, падение инвестиций. Возросла безработица, и снизились доходы, значительно сократился оборот розничной торговли. Поэтапное снятие ограничительных мер в мае—июне способствует постепенному восстановлению секторов, ориентированных на потребление. Вместе с тем опросы по-прежнему отражают сохранение осторожных настроений бизнеса.

Сокращение ВВП в II квартале может быть более существенным, чем ожидалось. В то же время поддержку российской экономике оказывают дополнительные меры Правительства и Банка России по смягчению экономических последствий пандемии коронавируса. В этих условиях ВВП снизится на 4–6% в 2020 году. В 2021–2022 годах продолжится восстановительный рост российской экономики.

Инфляционные риски. Дезинфляционные риски преобладают над проинфляционными. Дезинфляционные риски для базового сценария в основном связаны с неопределенностью относительно дальнейшего развития ситуации с пандемией коронавируса в России и в мире, масштабов возможных мер борьбы с ней и их влияния на экономическую активность, а также скорости восстановления мировой и российской экономики в результате смягчения ограничительных мер.

Краткосрочные проинфляционные риски, связанные с возможным значительным переносом в цены произошедшего ранее ослабления рубля, а также с эпизодами повышенного спроса на отдельные группы товаров, исчерпаны. Однако нарушение логистических цепочек в условиях введенных ограничений, а также дополнительные издержки, связанные с защитой работников и потребителей от угрозы распространения коронавируса, могут оказывать некоторое повышательное влияние на цены. Периоды усиления волатильности на глобальных рынках могут отражаться на курсовых и инфляционных ожиданиях.

На среднесрочную динамику инфляции будут значимо влиять параметры бюджетной политики, в частности масштаб и эффективность мер, принимаемых Правительством для смягчения последствий пандемии коронавируса и преодоления структурных ограничений, а также скорость бюджетной консолидации в 2021–2022 годах.

При развитии ситуации в соответствии с базовым прогнозом Банк России допускает возможность дальнейшего снижения ключевой ставки на ближайших заседаниях. Банк России будет принимать решения по ключевой ставке с учетом фактической и ожидаемой динамики инфляции относительно цели, развития экономики на прогнозном горизонте, а также оценивая риски со стороны внутренних и внешних условий и реакции на них финансовых рынков.

Следующее заседание Совета директоров Банка России, на котором будет рассматриваться вопрос об уровне ключевой ставки, запланировано на 24 июля 2020 года. Время публикации пресс-релиза о решении Совета директоров Банка России — 13:30 по московскому времени.

Динамика ставки рефинансирования Банка России с 1992 по 2015 годы. И далее…

В материале проанализирована динамика ставки рефинансирования за последние 20 лет — начиная с 01 января 1992 года. Наиболее высокая ставка рефинансирования, которая устанавливалась Центробанком РФ в период с 15 октября 1993 г. по 28 апреля 1994 г и составляла 210 %. В течении 10 лет скорость изменения ставки рефинансирования Центрального Банка замедлялась, то есть ставка рефинансирования становилась более стабильной. В период с 1993 по 2000 год ставка рефинансирования менялась в основном в течение года от 5 до 9 раз. В период с 2002 по 2007 годы ставка рефинансирования стабилизировалась и менялась в течение года от 1 до 3 раз, причем только в сторону снижения.

В течении 2008 года ставка рефинансирования ЦБ РФ постоянно росла, и особенно часто после начала мирового финансового кризиса. В 2008 году ставка рефинансирования менялась 6 раз, и это при том, что почти все центральные банки ведущих стран мира пересматривали ставки в сторону понижения. Но несмотря на сложный финансовый период, 2008 год Россия завершила со ставкой рефинансирования в размере 13,00 %. (Указание ЦБ РФ от 28.11.2008 № 2135-У «О размере ставки рефинансирования Банка России») и уровнем инфляции в 13,3%, т.е. ситуацию ЦБ РФ удержал под контролем.

Ставка рефинансирования ЦБ РФ в течении 2009 года менялась 10 раз, и все в сторону понижения. 2009 год Россия завершила со ставкой рефинансирования ЦБ в размере 8,75% и инфляцией в 8,8% (сведения Росстата), и это были самые низкие показатели с 1991 года, то есть за всю историю постсоветской России. Установленная регулятором столь низкая ставка рефинансирования была направлена на стимулирование кредитной активности банков, а также на сдерживание инфляционных процессов.

В 2010 году ставка рефинансирования Центробанка менялась только 4 раза, и только в сторону понижения. В 2010 году была также зафиксирована самая низкая за все существование Российской Федерации ставка рефинансирования в 7,75%, которая действовала с 01 июня 2010 по 27 февраля 2011 года. 2010 год Россия завершила со ставкой рефинансирования ЦБ в размере 7,75% и инфляцией в размере 8,8%.

2011 год Россия завершила со ставкой рефинансирования в 8,00%. Это было четвертое значение ставки рефинансирования Банка России за год. В течении года ставка пересматривалась трижды. Инфляция в РФ за 2011 год составила 6,1%, что является историческим минимумом для страны.

2012 год завершился со ставкой рефинансирования 8,25 % и инфляцией в 6,6 %. В течении 2012 года изменение ставки рефинансирования производилось Банком России только один раз — с 14 сентября в сторону увеличения на 0,25 пунктов. В течении предыдущих восьми месяцев 2012 года действовала ставка рефинансирования в размере — 8.00 %.

2013 год в России завершился со ставкой рефинансирования — 8,25 %, ключевой ставкой в 5,5%, и инфляцией в 6,5%. В течении всего 2013 года ставка рефинансирования Банка России оставалась неизменной и составляла 8,25 %. А с 13 сентября этого года ставка рефинансирования стала играть второстепенное значение и Банком России приводится справочно. По проекту Банка России к 2016 году ставка рефинансирования должна будет по значению сравняться с ключевой ставкой.

2014 год завершился со ставкой рефинансирования 8,25 %, ключевой ставкой 17% и инфляцией 11,4%. В течении 2014 года должна была продолжиться политика ЦБ РФ по её корректировки до уровня ключевой ставки. Фактически с января по декабрь 2014 года ставка рефинансирования не менялась, а в связи с резким поднятием в конце года ключевой ставки, её изменения пока смотрится нереальным.

В течении всего 2015 года ставка рефинансирования не менялась и год завершился со ставкой рефинансирования — 8,25 % и ключевой ставкой — 11,0%.

На начало 2016 года ставка рефинансирования составляла 11,00 %, как и ключевая ставка, а в дальнейшем изменение ставки рефинансирования происходило одновременно с изменением ключевой ставки Банка России и на ту же величину. С 1 января 2016 года самостоятельное значение ставки рефинансирования не устанавливается и динамика не фиксируется. Ключевая ставка в течении 2016 года изменялась дважды (до 10,5 % и до 10,0%). На конец 2016 года ключевая ставка сохранена на уровне 10,00%.

Ключевая ставка/Ставка рефинансирования за 2017 год менялась 6 раз и всё в сторону понижения — с 10,11% до 7,75 % (На начало года составляла 10,0%, с 27.03.2017 года снизилась до уровня в 9,75%, с 02.05.2017 года снизилась до уровня 9,25%, с 19.06.2017 года — 9,00%, с 18.09.2017 до 8,50%, с 30.10.2017 года до 8,25%, а с 18.12.2017 до 7,75%).

На начало 2018 года Банком России сохранялась ключевая ставка в 7,75% годовых, с 12.02.2018 она снижена до 7,50%, с 26.03.2018 года снижена до 7,25%, а с 17.09.2018 года повышена до 7,50% в связи с изменением внешних условий. 17.12.2018 года произведено последнее в том году изменение ставки до 7,75%, это 5-я ключевая ставка /ставка рефинансирования/, установленная в течении 2018 года.

В период января — июня 2019 года ключевая ставка Банка России составляла 7,75% годовых, с 17 июня 2019 г. снижена до — 7,50%, с 29 июля 2019 снижена до 7,25%, с 09 сентября снижено до 7,00%, с 28 октября 2019 года — 6,50%, а с 16 декабря 2019 года снижена уже до 6,25%. Это шестое за год понижение ставки.

С начала 2020 года ключевая ставка Банка России составляла 6,25% годовых, с 10.02.2020 года составляла 6.00%, а с 2704.2020 г. — 5,50%. В 2020 году это уже третье изменение и пока наблюдается тенденция понижения ключевой ставки.

Ниже приводятся все ставки рефинансирования Центрального Банка Российской Федерации, начиная с 1992 года и по день отмены её самостоятельного официального установления и ключевые ставки за последующие годы.

*Значение ставки рефинансирования Банка России с 01.01.2016 года приравнено к значению ключевой ставки Банка России на соответствующую дату. С 01.01.2016 самостоятельное значение ставки рефинансирования не устанавливается.

Динамика Ключевой ставки Банка России за период 2017 — 2020 годы выглядит так:

Всю динамику по ключевой ставке начиная с момента её внедрения (с 13 сентября 2013 года) и историю её введения можно посмотреть здесь

Ключевая ставка/Ставка рефинансирования на сегодня (с 22 июня 2020 года.) составляет — 4,50%.

Решения, которые принимались Банком России о ставке рефинансирования

Решение о совершенствовании системы инструментов денежно-кредитной политики Совет директоров Банка России принял 13 сентября 2013 года. На основании этого решения основную роль в политике банка стала играть ключевая ставка, а ставка рефинансирования — играет второстепенное значение и приводится справочно. Кроме того, Совет Директоров ЦБ постановил, что в период с 13 сентября 2013 года по 1 января 2016 ставка рефинансирования будет скорректирована до уровня ключевой ставки.

С 01.01.2016 года ставка рефинансирования на сайте Центрального России РФ даже справочно уже не приводится, так как она теперь соответствует ключевой ставке.

Решение по корректировке ставки рефинансирования было принято 11.12.2015 года Банком России совместно с Правительством, которое предусматривает следующее:

• с 1 января 2016 года по решению Совета Директоров Банка России от 11.12.2015 года значение ставки рефинансирования приравнивается к значению ключевой ставки Банка России, определенному на соответствующую дату и далее её самостоятельное значение не устанавливается. В дальнейшем изменение ставки рефинансирования будет происходить одновременно с изменением ключевой ставки Банка России на ту же величину.
• с 1 января 2016 года Правительство Российской Федерации будет также использовать ключевую ставку Банка России во всех нормативных актах вместо ставки рефинансирования (распоряжение Премьер-министром России Д. Медведевым подписано).

90154 Deciding whether or not you should refinance your home mortgage depends upon several factors.It also depends upon whether you are looking to simply reduce your monthly payment or if you are hoping to save money in the long run. 90155 90154 To understand better, let’s look at an example. If your original 30 years loan was for $ 250000.00 with a 5.000% interest, and you have already paid on it for 60 months, 90157 it will increase your monthly payment if you refinance for a new 15 years period 90158 but with a 4.750% interest rate . 90155
90154 If your Federal tax rate is 25.000% and your state tax rate is 5.000%, you were probably paying $ 1,342.05 per month toward your home. 90157 When you refinance at the new rate, you will pay $ 1,785.68 90158 instead, but your tax benefits will also be affected by this change. 90155 90154 The bottom line is: 90155 90166
90167 90157 you will lose $ 3,373.47 on tax savings 90158 (lesser tax benefit is worse) 90170
90167 your 90157 remaining balance will be $ 48,509.74 less 90158 because you will pay more toward your mortgage principal (lesser principal is better) 90170
90167 closing your refinancing process will cost you $ 3.495.72 90170 90177
90154 90157 Summing up these numbers, we can figure out your total 90180 refinancing BENEFIT 90181, which will be $ 4,375.72. 90158 90155 90184

90154 By default 15-yr fixed-rate refinance loans are displayed in the table below.Filters enable you to change the loan amount, duration, or loan type. 90155

90154 90155 90193 Factors to Consider When Refinancing 90194
90154 When you buy your home, it may not always be under the perfect circumstances. Your credit may not have been good enough to qualify you for the best interest rates or you may have took out a loan using adjustable rates. You may not have had the down payment you wanted. You may taken on more than you could really afford in your enthusiasm to own your first home.90155
90154 Refinancing can be the answer for many homeowners trying to balance their budget and meet their financial goals. In some cases, it can save you hundreds of dollars a month. However, it is not always the most appropriate solution. It’s important to understand the pros and cons to ensure that you make the right decision for your personal circumstances. 90155
90154 If you only need a small sum of money or rates have risen it might make sense to keep your current mortgage and tap your equity using either a home equity loan or a revolving home equity line of credit instead.90155
90193 Signs It’s Time to Refinance 90194
90102 Falling Interest Rates 90103
90154 90216 One of the best signs that it’s a good time is that interest rates have dropped or that you now qualify for lower interest rates based on your improved credit score or credit history. A two-point interest rate deduction on a $ 200,000 home could save you tens of thousands of Dollars over the life of a 30-year, fixed-rate loan. Typically, a full point or two is necessary to make refinancing worth your while.The savings from a half-point or less may take years to offset expenses, depending on the terms of your loan. 90155
90102 Shift From Adjustable to Fixed Rates 90103
90154 Another good reason to refi is if you want to get out of an adjustable-rate mortgage or to eliminate a second mortgage loan, or a piggyback loan. When your ARM is going to reset to a higher interest rate, you may be able to shift into a fixed-rate loan with a lower interest rate. Of course, your credit history will need to have improved significantly from when you were approved for the original loan.You can also refi to consolidate two loans into one single loan with one monthly payment. 90155
90102 Shift Into a Conventional Loan 90103
90154 FHA loans are easier to qualify for than conventional loans, allowing both low down payments and lower credit scores. FHA loans typically charge mortgage insurance premium (MIP) for the life of the loan. By shifting over to a conventional loan a homeowner can drop the insurance requirement so long as they have at least 20% equity in their home. 90155
90102 Pay Off Your Loan Faster 90103
90154 An often overlooked reason to refi is to pay off your home more quickly, perhaps in preparation for retirement.Instead of paying off your mortgage for another 25 years, you can pay it off in 15. Though you may have to pay more per month, you may end up spending far less over the years as a result of both a lower interest rate and a more rapid amortization repayment schedule. Every dollar of equity you build this year is a dollar that is not costing you interest for every remaining year of your life. 90155
90102 Extract Home Equity 90103
90154 Economic uncertainty around the COVID-19 crisis has left many house rich & cash poor Americans laid off or furlowed from work considering tapping their home equity.90155
90154 Historically, a less-popular option is the «cash out» refinance, which can be used to help pay down other higher interest debts. The cash out option involves taking out a loan for more than the current remaining balance — assuming you have built up some home equity — and taking out the difference from the amount you still owe on your mortgage in cash. You can use that money to pay down other debts, fund business investment, or work on home improvement projects. If you tap most of your home equity you might have to pay a higher interest rate than a borrower who gives the lender a significant equity cushion.90155
90154 In recent years as mortgage rates have fallen the spread between mortgage rates and HELOC rates has widened, making many homeowners who need a bit of cash durng a crunch consider a cash-out refinance a better option than a HELOC or a home equity loan. 90155
90154 The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act increased the standard deduction for individuals or married filing individually to $ 12,000, head of household to $ 18,000 & married filing jointly to $ 24,000. Those numbers are up significantly from $ 6,300, $ 9,300 and $ 12,600 in 2016.In 2020 standard deductions increased further to $ 12,400, $ 18,650 and $ 24,800 respectively. Previously around 47 million Americans itemized deductions, though under the new laws it is expected over 90% of taxpayers will simply use standard deductions. If you are unlikely to itemize your deductions, you can set your state & federal tax rates at zero in our refinancing calculator to remove the impact of taxes on the calculator’s output. 90155
90154 It is also worth noting that if you increase your mortgage debt on a refinance then generally interest paid on that incremental mortgage debt typically is 90009 not 90010 tax deductible unless the money is used to expand or substantially improve the dwelling.Talk to your financial advisor if you are uncertain if your project qualifies. Be sure to save any related receipts in case you are audited. 90155

90193 Signs It’s Best to Wait 90194
90154 Refinancing will not always save you money. It typically involves the same closing costs as your original loan, including attorney fees, appraisals and title insurance — though some fees may be waved as banks compete for your business.To determine if it is the best choice, you should compare your monthly savings to the costs you will have to put in and find out how long it will take you to break even. If you do not plan to live in your house that long — and preferably longer, refinancing is not worth it. You may also face additional costs if your original loan has an early prepayment penalty. 90155
90154 The above calculator can help you quickly break down your costs and benefits to better understand if refinancing is the right choice for you.The calculator takes into account your interest rate, length of the loan, the amount of time you plan to stay in your home, origination and closing costs and taxes so you can get a complete financial analysis. 90155

90002 What is a VA IRRRL Streamline Refinance? 90003

90004 The VA Streamline Refinance is also known as the Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL).The IRRRL allows you to refinance your current mortgage to a lower rate and monthly payment. In addition, there’s limited paperwork required, VA IRRRL rates are exceptionally low, and you might have low or no closing costs. 90005

90004 Generally speaking, almost all active duty and / or honorably discharged service members are eligible for a VA purchase or Streamline Refinance loan. 90005

90004 The Streamline loan is extremely popular because of its ease of use: once you have already been approved for your initial VA purchase loan, it is relatively simple to lower your interest rate and experience considerable savings.90005

90004 That’s because your lender is not required to do time-consuming paperwork, like income and employment verification. And some borrowers can even skip the home appraisal when they use a VA streamline refinance. 90005

90004 All told, a loan officer or lender with expertise in VA loans should be able to complete the IRRRL process within a month’s time in most cases. 90005

90004 Another big benefit? VA loan closing costs can be rolled into the cost of the loan. This allows veterans to refinance with little or no out-of-pocket expenses.90005

90004 Sometimes it is also possible for the lender to take the brunt of the cost in exchange for a higher interest rate on your loan. 90005

90002 VA Streamline Refinance requirements 90003

90004 In order to qualify for a VA Streamline, you must meet the following requirements: 90005

90084 90085 You currently have a VA mortgage 90086 90085 You are current on payments with no more than one 30-day late payment within the past year 90086 90085 Your new rate and monthly payment for the IRRRL must also be lower than the previous loan’s monthly payment .The only time this condition does not apply is if you refinance an ARM to a fixed rate mortgage 90086 90085 You must not receive any cash from the IRRRL 90086 90085 You must certify that you currently or previously occupied the property 90086 90085 You must have previously used your VA Loan eligibility on the property you intend to refinance. You may see this referred to as a VA-to-VA refinance 90086 90097

90004 You can easily figure out if you meet the VA IRRRL guidelines by checking with your current mortgage lender, or any other lender that’s authorized to do VA loans.90005

90002 The VA Cash-Out refinance loan 90003

90004 A secondary VA refinance loan type is the VA Cash-Out refinance loan. The Cash-Out refinance allows borrowers to refinance their conventional or VA loan into a lower rate while also taking cash from the home’s value. 90005

90004 Functionally, the VA Cash-Out refinance loan replaces your existing mortgage instead of functioning like a home equity loan, which it is often confused for. A qualified borrower can refinance up to 100 percent of their home’s value in some cases.90005

90004 The Cash-Out refinance loan is a loan type available in any form — whether USDA, FHA, or conventional. Veterans generally choose to use the VA Cash-Out over other loan types because the period to pay off the loan is extended, and also, generally comes with a lower interest rate. 90005

90004 Just like the VA Streamline Refinance loan, the home must be used as a principal dwelling by the owner. There is no set period of time that you must have owned your home, however, you must have sufficient equity to qualify for the loan.90005

90002 Background on VA loans 90003

90004 VA loans are loans which belong to a special loan program designed specifically for veterans. VA loans can be issued by any VA-approved lender and are guaranteed by the federal government. 90005

90004 The VA loan’s definitive characteristic is that veterans with qualifying credit and income can purchase a home with no money down, which makes buying a home extremely attractive for those who have served in the military. 90005

90004 In addition, VA loans also feature flexible requirements, no private mortgage insurance (PMI), and extremely competitive mortgage rates.90005

90004 In order to qualify for a VA Loan, a veteran must have served 181 days during peacetime, 90 days during wartime, or 6 years in the Reserves or National Guard. You may also qualify as the spouse of a service member who was killed in the line of duty. 90005

90002 VA Streamline Refinance FAQ 90003

90012 What are current VA Streamline Refinance rates? 90013 90004 Current VA refinance rates are averaging 2.25% (2.421% APR) for a 30-year fixed-rate VA loan, and 2.25% (2.571% APR) for a 15-year VA loan, 90012 according to our lender network 90013. Your own Streamline Refinance rate will likely be different, depending on your credit and the size of your current VA loan. You can 90012 get a custom VA refinance rate estimate here 90013. 90005 90012 Are there closing costs with a VA Streamline Refinance? 90013 90004 Closing costs for a VA Streamline Refinance are similar to other VA loans: usually 1-3% of the loan amount. However, you may be able to skip the home appraisal, which can save around $ 500- $ 1,000.And the upfront «90012 funding fee 90013» for the VA Streamline Refinance is cheaper — just 0.5% of the loan amount, instead of the 1-4% fee for a home purchase. You also have the option to roll closing costs into your loan with a VA Streamline Refinance, so you do not have to pay them up front. 90005 90012 When can you refinance a VA loan? 90013 90004 The VA requires you to wait 7 months (210 days) from your last loan closing before using the VA Streamline Refinance. However, some VA lenders impose their own waiting period of up to 12 months.If your current lender says it’s too soon to refinance your VA loan after 7 months, it might be worth shopping for another lender that will let you refinance sooner. 90005 90012 How does VA refinancing work? 90013 90004 First, make sure you’re qualified for a VA refinance. (90012 See the VA’s refinancing guidelines here 90013.) Then, check rates from a few different lenders. You do not have to refinance with your current lender, and most people can find an even lower rate and payment by shopping around.Once you choose a mortgage company, you’ll submit your loan documents and get approved. A VA Streamline Refinance requires less paperwork than other loan types, and may let you skip the home appraisal. With an experienced lender, VA refinancing can take less than a month from end to end. 90005 90012 90012 Do I need my Certificate of Eligibility (COE) for a Streamline Refinance? 90013 90013 90004 Since you used your 90012 Certificate of Eligibility 90013 to get your first VA loan, it is not needed to qualify for a streamline refinance of your existing VA mortgage.90005 90012 90012 Does the VA control mortgage interest rates for VA loan types? 90013 90013 90004 No, they do not. Although the VA offers an easy, straightforward process for veterans, VA mortgage rates are set by the banks who buy and sell mortgages. 90005 90012 90012 Do I have to use my current lender to refinance my VA loan? 90013 90013 90004 No, you do not. In fact, it is encouraged that you shop around between various lenders, as each will offer various interest rates for your VA loan.All that matters is that the lender is VA-approved. Because so many lenders out there finance VA loans, it makes sense to shop around. 90005 90012 90012 Do I have to go through the credit check and appraisal process again when refinancing? 90013 90013 90004 There is no requirement from the VA for another credit check or appraisal process because you have already been approved for a loan. However, many lenders require a credit check and appraisal to guarantee that you are still financially stable enough to pay for your mortgage and also, that the house’s market value is still higher than their maximum loan amount.90005 90012 90012 Do I have to be eligible for a better interest rate to qualify for a Streamline Refinance? 90013 90013 90004 Not if you meet certain conditions. If you are going from a fixed mortgage to another fixed mortgage, the VA requires that your IRRRL be of a lower interest rate, but if you are moving from an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) to a fixed rate mortgage, the VA will allow you to refinance to a higher interest rate. 90005 90012 Can I take cash out with a VA Streamline Refinance closing? 90013 90004 Yes, you may receive up to $ 6,000 cash-in-hand at your IRRRL closing.The cash, however, must be used for energy-efficiency improvements, and must be a reimbursement for improvements made within 90 days prior to closing. Some VA borrowers will receive a cash disbursement of «old» escrow funds, too. 90005 90012 90012 What is the maximum allowable VA IRRRL loan size? 90013 90013 90004 There is no maximum loan size limit for a VA loan. However, a VA Streamline Refinance will be limited to the existing loan balance plus any accrued late fees and late charges, plus typical loan costs and the cost of any energy efficiency improvements.90005 90012 90012 Can I change the borrower-of-record with a VA Streamline Refinance? 90013 90013 90004 In general, the borrower (s) obligated on the original VA loan must be the same as borrower (s) obligated on the refinance. However, this is not always possible. As an example, assume that a veteran and spouse are obligated on an existing VA loan. 90005 90004 An IRRRL is possible in all of the following scenarios: Divorced veteran alone; Veteran and different spouse; and, spouse alone because the veteran died.An IRRRL is not possible for a divorced spouse alone, or a different spouse alone because the veteran died. 90005 90012 90012 Can I use the VA Streamline Refinance for an investment property? 90013 90013 90004 Yes, you can use the VA Streamline Refinance for an investment property. You must only certify that you previously occupied the property as your home. The property does not have to be your primary residence currently. 90005 90012 90012 Can I use the VA IRRRL if my loan is behind or delinquent? 90013 90013 90004 Yes, you can VA Streamline Refinance a loan which is behind in payments or delinquent.Your lender will want to know that the cause of the delinquency has been resolved; and you must be willing and able to make the payments on the new VA loan. 90005 90004 Lastly, you will be asked to provide a letter to explain the delinquency along with additional supporting documentation. The Department of Veterans Affairs will make a final determination whether the IRRRL should be approved. 90005 90012 90012 Can I use VA loans for a no money down mortgage? 90013 90013 90004 Yes.

.90000 Conventional refinance rates and guidelines for 2020 90001
90002 Conventional refinance rates 90003
90004 Mortgage rates for conventional loans are low thanks to strong backing by two of the world’s largest lending agencies: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. 90005
90004 These two companies have been in government «conservatorship» since the housing downturn in 2008. What that means is that conventional loans come with an implied government guarantee. 90005
90004 That reduces rates for these loans.90005
90004 Conventional loans are nearly in the same class as FHA loans. While conventional loan backing is not explicit as it is with FHA, many argue that the implied guarantee is keeping conventional mortgage rates artificially low. 90005
90004 As a consumer, you can take advantage of ultra-low rates for a conventional refinance while they are available. 90005

90018 How can I use a conventional refinance? 90003
90004 A conventional refinance loan is one of the most flexible products on the market.Homeowners are using it to accomplish a wide array of home finance goals. 90005
90022 1. Conventional refinances for non-owner occupied residences 90023
90004 One flexibility offered by this loan is around occupancy type. 90005
90004 Government-backed loans like FHA, the VA mortgage, and USDA home loan can be used only for a primary residence, i.e. the home you live in. 90005
90004 A conventional refinance loan, though, can be used for a primary residence, second home, or investment (rental) property.90005
90022 2. Cash-out / debt consolidation conventional refinance 90023
90004 You can also use a conventional cash-out loan to tap into the equity in your home. For example, if you owe $ 200,000 on a home worth twice as much, you can take out a loan for $ 300,000, replacing the former loan and receiving cash back at closing. 90005
90004 These proceeds can be used for any purpose: home improvement, debt consolidation, college financing, and more. 90005
90004 A conventional loan, then, can lower your monthly payments by paying off expensive credit cards, auto loans, and other payments.90005
90004 A conventional refinance can even be used to take cash out of a rental property or second home. For property investors, this is an excellent way to remove equity from existing properties to purchase additional ones. 90005

90022 3. Cancel FHA or USDA mortgage insurance 90023
90004 Many first-time home buyers choose a government-backed mortgage to get into their first home. 90005
90004 And for good reason. 90005
90004 Government-sponsored programs are flexible on credit scores and down payments.However, they come at a cost. 90005
90004 FHA loans include a monthly mortgage insurance premium (MIP) of $ 71 per month per $ 100,000 borrowed. USDA home loans, too, come with a monthly fee, typically $ 29 monthly per $ 100,000 in loan amount. 90005
90004 These fees are well worth homeownership. But owners do not want to pay the fees for life if they have enough equity to cancel these payments. 90005
90004 A conventional refinance exchanges an FHA or USDA loan for a conventional one, thereby eliminating associated monthly fees.And, with 20% or more equity, you pay no mortgage insurance on the new conventional loan. 90005
90004 Home values ​​are way up compared to just a few years ago, and homeowners are realizing their equity makes holding government-sponsored loan fees unnecessary. 90005
90004 Read more about canceling FHA mortgage insurance. 90005
90022 4. Refinance out of * any * type of loan 90023
90004 Many streamline refinance types require you to have a certain type of loan to use the program. 90005
90004 A VA streamline refinance requires you to have a VA loan already, and the popular FHA streamline has a similar requirement.90005
90004 FMERR refinances require you to have an existing Freddie Mac loan. 90005
90004 But a standard conventional refinance can replace any loan type: 90005
90068
90069 FHA 90070
90069 VA 90070
90069 USDA 90070

90004 In addition, 90015 mechanic’s liens, tax liens, and judgments 90016 on your home’s title can be paid off with a conventional loan.90005
90004 There are absolutely no restrictions on your current financing type to use a conventional refinance. 90005

90022 5. Reimburse a cash home purchase 90023
90004 You can use a conventional refinance to reimburse yourself for a home paid for in cash. 90005
90004 The «delayed financing rule» allows you to make a quick purchase using cash — as is often required with foreclosures and homes on the auction block — without permanently depleting cash reserves.90005
90004 Prior to the inception of this rule, investors had to wait six months to obtain a cash-out refinance on a home they just purchased. The rule eliminates that waiting period, as long as these requirements are met: 90005
90068
90069 The cash used for the original purchase must be documented to the bank 90070
90069 The new loan size may not exceed the property’s original purchase price 90070
90069 A title search must show that no liens exist on the home 90070
90085
90004 The buyer must prove the home sale actually occurred and that no loan was taken on the home.A final HUD-1 document is adequate proof. 90005
90110 2020 conventional loan limits 90003
90004 Loan limits are higher for conventional refinance loans in 2020. The standard loan limits are based on the number of units in the home. The maximum number of units for a conventional loan is four. 90005
90068
90069 The conventional loan limit for a 1-unit home: $ 510,400 90070
90069 The conventional loan limit for a 2-unit home: $ 653,550 90070
90069 The conventional loan limit for a 3-unit home: $ 789,950 90070
90069 The conventional loan limit for a 4-unit home: $ 981,700 90070
90085
90004 Limits are higher in designated high-cost areas.90005
90004 For example, a one-unit home in Los Angeles, California can be financed up to $ 510,400 with a conventional mortgage, and a 2-unit home in Alabama is allowed a loan up to $ 653,550. 90005

90130 Conventional streamline refinance 90003
90004 Many homeowners ask if there is a conventional streamline refinance. Streamline refinances are popular choices for FHA and VA loans. No appraisal is required for these programs, and, often, income and asset documentation requirements are waived.90005
90004 Technically, there are no conventional streamline programs, but, thanks to new regulations, more conventional refinances can be done without an appraisal. Skipping an appraisal can save you $ 500 or more. 90005
90004 Additionally, the lender may only need minimal income documentation for strong applicants. 90005
90004 For instance, a nurse has been on the job for more than two years. The lender may only need to call the applicant’s employer to verify continued employment. 90005
90004 The requirement for pay stubs, W-2s, and tax returns may be waived entirely.90005
90004 For some refinance types, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac already own the loan and have on file the original documentation. 90005
90004 These agencies are streamlining the process more each year so homeowners have easier access to lower payments. 90005

90146 Loan-to-value (LTV) maximums for conventional refinance loans 90003
90004 Maximum loan-to-value will vary depending on the loan purpose, type of property, and whether the new loan is a fixed or adjustable rate mortgage (ARM).90005
90004 For instance, lenders allow a much higher LTV for a primary residence than for a non-owner-occupied property. 90005
90004 Loan-to-value, or LTV, is the comparison between the loan amount and the property value. The higher the loan amount compared to home value, the higher the LTV. 90005

90004 The above are maximums for traditional conventional refinances.However, with the FMERR program and High-LTV Refinance Option, there are typically no LTV limits. You can have an LTV of 110% or even 150% and still qualify. Read about those options here: 90005

90004 Even without these programs, loan-to-value ratios for conventional loans are generous, and allow homeowners of all types to refinance a significant portion of their home’s value. 90005
90350 Conventional refinance credit score minimum 90003
90004 This refinance type is available down to a 620 score, or even lower in some cases.90005
90004 At least, those are official Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines. 90005
90004 Many lenders will set a higher minimum around 640. But it should be noted that conventional loan rates are risked-based, unlike government-backed programs like FHA. 90005
90004 Fannie Mae publishes loan-level price adjustments, or LLPAs, which raise rates for applicants with higher loan-to-value (LTV) ratios and lower credit scores. 90005
90004 For instance, a homeowner with a 680 credit score and a loan-to-value of 80% will pay an additional fee of 1.75% of the loan amount compared to an applicant with a 740 score and 60% LTV. Those additional fees can be paid in cash, wrapped into the loan amount, or taken as a higher rate. 90005
90004 A 1.75% fee translates to an approximate one-quarter of one percent increase in rate. 90005
90004 For this reason, homeowners with very low credit scores should consider an FHA refinance or put strategies in place to increase their credit scores prior to applying for a conventional refinance. 90005
90366 Private mortgage insurance (PMI) for conventional refinances 90003
90004 Conventional mortgages do not require an upfront funding fee or mortgage insurance premium as do FHA, VA, and USDA loans.And, no monthly mortgage insurance is required with 20% or more equity. 90005
90004 But homeowners can refinance into conventional if they do not have a full 20% in equity. In these cases, private mortgage insurance (PMI) will be required. 90005
90004 A homeowner may want to refinance into conventional — even with a PMI payment — because conventional private mortgage insurance is cancelable, unlike that of FHA and USDA loans. 90005
90004 Conventional PMI drops off when you hit 80% loan-to-value.90005
90004 So you could replace an FHA loan with a conventional loan with PMI, for instance, then cancel PMI in a few years. 90005
90004 With high credit scores, conventional PMI is quite affordable, and, in some cases, is cheaper than FHA mortgage insurance. 90005
90004 Canceling FHA mortgage insurance with a new conventional loan can be a very wise strategy. 90005
Check your PMI eligibility with top lenders. (Jul 12th, 2020)
90382 Conventional refinance Q & A 90003
90004 Following are some of the most common questions homeowners have about conventional mortgage refinances.90005
90022 I was considering an FHA streamline. Should I request a conventional refinance instead? 90023
90004 It is worth seeing if you have enough equity for a conventional refinance. The advantage of a conventional loan is that your mortgage insurance is cancelable or you may not need it at all. 90005
90022 Should I apply for FMERR the High-LTV Refinance Option or a conventional refinance? What is the difference? 90023
90004 The FMERR loan and High-LTV Refinance Option (HLRO) are sub-types of conventional mortgages.These two loan types eliminate some of the lending rules for standard conventional loans, such as loan-to-value limits. As a general rule, if you have less than 3% equity you should check your FMERR or High-LTV Refi Option eligibility. These loans do not require mortgage insurance if you do not pay it currently. 90005
90022 My appraisal came in low. What now? 90023
90004 Some lenders offer an appraisal rebuttal process, but these are not typically successful. If it turns out you do not have enough equity, check your eligibility for FMERR or HLRO (see above).If you are not eligible, consider going through with the refinance. It’s okay to take on cancelable conventional PMI if you are still saving money or putting yourself in a better financial position. 90005
90022 Can I get a conventional adjustable-rate refinance mortgage? 90023
90004 Yes. Conventional refinance ARMs are a popular choice, especially for those planning to pay off their mortgage, sell the home, or refinance in five-to-seven years. ARMs offer an ultra-low rate, fixed, for a certain number of years (for instance five years fixed for a 5-year ARM).Adjustable conventional loans come with built-in safeguards. So the loan’s upward rate adjustment — if it goes up at all — is typically no more than one to two percent each year. 90005
90022 Do all lenders offer conventional refinances? 90023
90004 Not all, but most. Conventional refinances are the most popular of all refinance types. It’s safe to assume that nearly every lender in your city offers conventional mortgages. 90005
90022 How do I get a conventional refinance? 90023
90004 First, get written quotes from three or four lenders on the same day.That will help you determine which lender is offering the best value. From there, proceed through the application and underwriting process, through which the lender of choice will guide each step. 90005
90410 What are today’s conventional refinance rates? 90003
90004 Mortgage rates are low for all loan types, conventional refinances being no exception. 90005
