Funding fee tiers — and who skips them
The VA funding fee runs 2.15% on a first-use purchase with less than 5% down, drops to 1.5% with 5% down and 1.25% with 10% down, and is 3.3% for subsequent use with minimal down. IRRRLs are just 0.5%. Veterans receiving VA disability compensation, Purple Heart recipients, and eligible surviving spouses pay nothing.
Already have a VA loan? The IRRRL is your fast lane
The VA's Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL) lets you drop your rate with usually no appraisal, limited paperwork, and a reduced 0.5% funding fee. You'll need 210 days and six payments on your current loan, and your costs must recoup through savings within 36 months — a built-in protection that keeps the refinance honest.
Occupancy: this is for your home
VA and Texas Vet purchase loans are for primary residences. You'll generally move in within 60 days of closing and keep the home as your primary residence — they aren't for investment properties, though you can buy a multi-unit home and live in one unit.
