The VA Jumbo Refinance – VA Jumbo loans offer solutions conventional loans simply don’t allow for 2018

The VA Jumbo Refinance – VA Jumbo loans offer solutions conventional loans simply don’t allow for 2018
This may sound a little backwards from what you may have thought, seen or heard in the past about VA Loans, specifically VA Refinance Loans.   VanDyk Mortgage offers VA Loans for loan amounts up to $1,500,000, (even though you may not need that much!) and VanDyk Mortgage offers these throughout California, Massachusetts, Virginia, and Washington.

Conventional Loans require more equity for Jumbo loan amounts over $453,100 for both rate/term refinance and cash out refinance than VA requirements. True Jumbo Conventional Loans require at least 20% equity in your home for refinance, more if you want cash out. The VA Jumbo loan allows Refinances up to 90% of your homes value in both cases, VA Refinance, and VA Cash-out refinance. The VA Loan also allows you to consolidate a first and second mortgage with no penalty to rate or fees.

VA Jumbo rates are typically lower than True Jumbo Rates on 30 year fixed rate loans. Call for an updated quote today – 760-752-4480.

There are a couple scenarios below of how VA Jumbo Loans can help Jumbo Borrowers who are Veterans or Active Duty Military Personnel.

Scenario 1. Your home is worth $1m, and you live in San Francisco. You have a ARM loan and owe $860,000. Conventional loans require more equity, at least 20%, this scenario only has 14% equity, so the bank tells you no. In comes the VA Jumbo loan to the rescue. Since the county limit is $679,650 in San Francisco, and Van Dyk allows you to exceed the VA County Limit,  plus you have some equity in your home, we can offer you a VA Jumbo Loan can refinance this loan up to $919K. The VA jumbo loans are typically a 30 year fixed rate, and never a prepayment penalty. Problem Solved!

Scenario 2. You live in Los Angeles, your home is worth $900K, and you owe $770K on your current loan, which is adjustable rate, first/second mortgage combo, or higher interest fixed rate . You want to get a fixed rate while the rates are good. You call the big bank, who tells you that you don’t have enough equity in your home to refinance, you only have 12% equity, far below their 20% requirement. Once again, the VA Jumbo comes to the rescue for Veterans. Since the county limit is $679,650 for a Los Angeles VA Jumbo Loan, and VanDyk Mortgage allows VA loans over the county limit with an appropriate combination of entitlement and equity, we are able to offer you a new VA Jumbo 30 yr Fixed rate mortgage for this scenario. The new loan can be up to $844K, over 90% of the appraised value with your new Jumbo VA loan. Problem solved.

Scenario 3. You live in San Diego, your home is worth $750K. You have a first mortgage is $550K , and you have a second mortgage of $130K that you used to upgrade your home, and enhance it’s value. A conventional jumbo loan will consider this a Cash-Out transaction due to the second mortgage being paid off, and you will be limited to a maximum of 65% Loan to Value or LTV. This won’t work, as you are at 90.67% LTV. In comes the VA Jumbo to the rescue. Since the San Diego County VA Loan Limit is $649,750 for 2018, and you have some equity in your home, we can combine the first mortgage and the second mortgage into one VA Jumbo 30 year fixed rate Loan, and you have sufficient entitlement and equity to meet the base guideline of 25% guarantee.  Max VA loan amount in this scenario would be $724,937.  Problem solved.

Scenario 4. You live in San Diego, your home is worth $1 Million. You have a first mortgage owing $910K. The conforming high balance loan limit is $649,750 in San Diego, so that won’t help. The FHA loan loan limit in San Diego County is also $649,750, not helping either.   A conventional jumbo loan will require at least 20% equity in your home. This won’t work either, you are at 91% LTV.     Here comes the VA Jumbo to the rescue.  Since the San Diego County VA Loan Limit is $649,750, and you have some equity in your home, we can combine the first mortgage into a VA Jumbo Loan for as much as $912K, since you have sufficient entitlement and equity to meet the base guideline of 25% guarantee. Problem solved.

As you can see, working a VA Loan pro can really make a difference. Veterans have never had more options or ways to utilize their VA benefit to Purchase or Refinance their homes in California.

There are many more situations and scenarios that VA Loans can help whereas conventional loans may not. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you think your VA Benefit could help you a Refinance or Purchase your home.

Here is a recent post regarding the new VA Loan Limits 2018

These examples show some of the ways that a VA Jumbo Loan can help, and in ways that many lenders don’t offer. VanDyk Mortgage offers VA Jumbo Loans up to $1,500,000 in all areas that we service. Many VA Lenders limit VA Loans to the county limit for your area, or a max of $650K, VanDyk is not contained to these limits. Even in areas with a lower VA Loan Limit, we still offer the VA Loan up to $1,500,000, as long as there is a sufficient combination of entitlement and equity to meet the guideline of 25%.

You do need good credit for VA jumbo loans, and must be able to fully document your income, but that should come as no surprise in today’s lending world.
