VA Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL)
The IRRRL lowers your interest rate by refinancing your existing VA home loan. By obtaining a lower interest rate, your monthly mortgage payment should decrease.
A VA IRRRL loan is used to refinance a current VA loan into another loan with a lower interest rate. A VA IRRRL loan allows Veterans to take advantage of low interest rates and simplifies the loan process. You should consider refinancing if your current interest rate is at least one percent higher than current VA IRRRL rates or you wish to change from an Adjustable Rate Mortgage to a fixed-rate. Learn more about VA loan refinance requirements and benefits by contacting a Fifth Third Mortgage Specialist.
