Meaning the payment must decline, the interest rate must decline, or the term must be reduced.\u00a0 Another benefit could be going from a 30yr to a 15yr loan thus paying off your loan sooner.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/dreamhomefinancing.com\/\/LeadForm.aspx\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">CLICK TO GET A QUOTE ON FHA STREAMLINE RATES<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p><strong>FHA Streamline Refinance Costs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The costs are virtually the same as a traditional FHA loan.
