Common Questions

How does the UFMIP refund work?

If you refinance your existing FHA loan into a new FHA Streamline within three years, you may be eligible for a pro-rated credit of your original Upfront Mortgage Insurance Premium. We calculate this automatically to ensure your new loan is as cost-effective as possible.

Can I skip a mortgage payment?

One of the perks of the Streamline process is the timing of your payoff. Depending on which day of the month we close, you can typically skip one month’s mortgage payment, providing an immediate boost to your liquid cash flow during the transition.

FAQ’s about FHA Streamline Refinances

How does the UFMIP refund work?

If you refinance your existing FHA loan into a new FHA Streamline within three years of your original closing, you may be eligible for a pro-rated credit of your original Upfront Mortgage Insurance Premium. We calculate this automatically during your strategy session to ensure your new loan is as cost-effective as possible.

Can I skip a mortgage payment during the process?

One of the most popular perks of the Streamline process is the timing of your payoff. Depending on which day of the month we close, you can typically skip one month’s mortgage payment. This provides an immediate boost to your liquid cash flow while you transition into your new, lower interest rate.

Is there a minimum credit score requirement?

While the FHA itself does not mandate a minimum credit score for a non-credit qualifying streamline, most lenders look for a score of at least 580. The most critical factor is your payment history: you must have zero 30-day lates in the last six months to qualify for this “express” processing.

How do I begin my FHA Streamline review?

Every FHA loan has a specific timeline and “Net Tangible Benefit” requirement. To find the optimal path for your specific situation, the first step is a quick Eligibility Review. We’ll verify your original loan date, analyze your current mortgage insurance (MIP) structure, and confirm that a streamline refinance provides the required financial gain. Whether you are moving from an ARM to a fixed rate or simply lowering your monthly payment, I’ll be here to navigate the FHA guidelines for you.
