Our home is almost paid off, worth it to do VA cashout?

If you are looking to get cash out from the VA you will have to do a VA cash out loan. If you are looking to just get equity out you can do a home equity line of credit with a bank. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I can also be reached at Sarah@priorityfin.com or 540-318-8811.

You should definitely sit down with a mortgage professional to discuss your goals. Once a clear objective is determined a mortgage professional will then be able to lay out all of your options and help you decide what the best loan product is for you.

The VA loan is a great program, but it shines the most on a purchase loan with a low or no down payment. It also shines as it allows up to 100% cash out on a refinance. A reverse mortgage has no payments, while a traditional VA would have payments.

It really depends on whether or not you want to make payments.. with VA you can do 100% cash out refinance, but you will have to make payments.. with a reverse mortgage, you might only be able to pull out 65%, but you will never need to make a payment.. which is better for you?
