FHA STREAMLINE REQUIRMENTS

FHA allows a Georgia mortgage applicant to FHA streamline refinance current FHA insured mortgage loans. The “FHA Streamline refinance” only refers to the minimal amount of documentation and underwriting that the Georgia mortgage lender must perform to approve these loans, and does not mean that there are no costs involved.

If you have a conventional Georgia mortgage you wish to FHA refinance with an FHA mortgage, you’ll need to apply with the usual full mortgage application including a credit check, employment verification, debt-to-income and other considerations for Georgia FHA mortgage approval. With an FHA mortgage refinance can get you many of the same results. For Georgia mortgage applicants if you refinance from a conventional loan to an FHA insured mortgage refinancing may provide better rates and lower FHA mortgage payments.


The basic  FHA streamline Georgia mortgage requirments include:

1. The Georgia FHA mortgage to be refinanced must already be FHA insured.

2. The Georgia FHA mortgage to be refinanced must be current not delinquent. And 0 x 30 days late on your FHA mortgage in the last 12 months.

3. The FHA streamline refinance must lower of the FHA loan applicants monthly principal and interest payments, or, under certain circumstances, the conversion of an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) to a fixed-rate Georgia mortgage.

4. No cash may be taken out on streamline FHA mortgage refinancing using the FHA streamline refinance process.
