Marty - Trident Home Loans Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 We got a nice little rate dip this week and I'm taking advantage of it to lower rates at no cost for as many people as I can.If you are over 3.625% on a 30yr VA that's still your primary residence, email me to see if I can make a NO cost VA IRRRL work for you. I just need your state, VA Disability status, credit score and loan amount to run a quick quote.I can also do No cost IRRRLs on previous homes that you still have a VA on but use as a rental now. The rate would just be a little higher but if your sitting above 4% it'd be worth looking at.Take care!Martymarty@mythl.comSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MooseAg03 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I'm going to be PCSing later this year and will hopefully wind up somewhere a little more rural than Las Vegas. Does anyone have any information on VA construction loans? If we can't find an existing home to suit us, we might look at buying a little bit of land and building a home if possible. From what I've read it seems you usually have to use a local lender or builder to finance the build prior to VA mortgage funding.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, local lenders, banks, and credit unions are typically the best for construction loans. You can do a VA construction loan where you pay interest only until construction is complete then you start principle and interest payments. The rate will be higher but since you're already in a VA you can follow it up with a no cost IRRRL to reduce your rate. I'm doing regular 30yr VAs at 3.25%, but a construction VA would probably be around 4.25-4.5 if I had to guess. It doesn't really matter what initial rate you get if you do a no cost IRRRL 6 months after the construction is compete. You can even ask for a larger lender credit in exchange for a higher rate knowing you're going to do the IRRRL to lower the rate back down to the market rate. That'd be my recommendation.MartySent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaded Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Can you get a conventional loan and then 6 months later refinance to an IRRRL VA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty - Trident Home Loans Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Can you get a conventional loan and then 6 months later refinance to an IRRRL VA?An IRRRL is a streamlined VA refi. Your original loan would need to be a VA to do an IRRRL. You can refi from a conventional to a VA but there are more costs/paperwork/appraisals associated. You can take a slightly higher rate to get most of your closing costs paid then do an IRRRL to lower the rate back down assuming rates stay similar over the 6 months. I do a lot of these minimal closing cost initial VAs followed by a no cost IRRRL after 6 months. Saves you a lot of money for not that much extra paperwork especially if you may sell due to a PCS 3yrs later and don't want to deplete your savings or roll extra costs into you loan.Little known fact...you can do an IRRRL on any house you've lived in that still has a VA loan on it even if you're not living in it anymore. Don't just live with a terrible interest rate on an old house if you can reduce it at no cost.MartySent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This can be a very costly option if you are required to pay the VA funding fee...When refinancing a non-VA loan to a VA loan, you are required to pay the full 0% down funding fee regardless of the amount of equity you have in the home. That is 2.15% of your loan value for a 1st time user and 3.3% for a subsequent user (2.4% and 3.3% for a reservist). Regular VA refinances (not VA streamlined IRRRLs) are full credit qualifying loans (VA appraisal required along with a termite report for homes in termite states, full credit qualifying documents like paystubs/LES, bank statements, etc.). Not that bad except the funding fee is a bitter pill to swallow if you are not exempt....Let me know if you have any other questions! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Amy that it is costly "if" you have to pay the funding fee. If you have a VA disability or your lender pays your funding fee then the refi costs are significantly lower. I regularly pay the initial 2.15% funding fee then do a no cost IRRRL after 6 months for my borrowers. It's a win for everyone.

Daredevileng1 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Another shout for NBKC and Keith Andrew in particular. Just closed Friday and it was painless and very organizied. Offer to closing was 5 weeks but Keith could have supported something closer to 2 weeks with his hard work. He was always available and locked us in last month to a great rate. Looked at Trident too but they weren't able to lend in the state we bought. Overall very happy with his communication and responsiveness. Would never have found this bank with BO.net-DDEDIT-for autocorrect shenanigans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vertigo Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I closed last week with Dave Devine at NBKC. Great communication and painless. I was more of a pain to him than anything in getting documents he needed. He saved me quite a bit in closing costs, knocked 3 years off my previous mortgage, lowered my interest rate, and got me $20K for a remodel while keeping my monthly payment within $5 of my previous loan.

Herk Driver Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Closed yesterday on a new construction VA home loan with Trident Loans. Locked in at 3.375% (no points) on a 30-year VA fixed on 9 May and closed with no issues yesterday on 14 Jun. Marty was extremely easy to work with and easy to contact. Between Lauren and Christy, this was an easy process that resulted in a highly satisfied customer. As a matter of fact, we were cleared to close on 31 May in what was the easiest home loan I have ever submitted. From the initial loan app there was one request for additional documentation and Christy took care of all the details.I highly recommend Marty and his team.ETA : more detailsSent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Just had a second fantastic experience with Marty's team at Trident (refinancing our primary to a VA-loan). Excellent communication throughout the process, along with a great rate and lender credit. Extremely stress-free from beginning to end, and I think we closed within 3 weeks of initial contact. Highly recommend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly recommend! Thank you gentlemen! You were both a pleasure to work with! For everyone else, interest rates have dipped to pre-election levels so this a great time to buy or do a refi. We're in the process of doing a bunch of 30yr VA no-cost refi's for prior borrowers at 3.5%. If you're sitting above that we'd love to take a look at your numbers for 5mins and see if we can reduce your payment at no cost. Streamlines are super easy and don't require all the paperwork and energy that goes into initial purchase loans. We also just got two more state licenses, NM & UT. Let me know how I can help you...

Rates are staying pretty steady right now. If you keep an eye on the 10yr treasury bond you can spot the mortgage rate trend. If the bond increases then rates will trend higher and vice versa. The bond has been as high as 2.62% this year and is currently at 2.15% so now is a good time to get a mortgage or do a refi. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/%5ETNX/Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
