Clear the path to qualification

Trusted partners can help with loan readiness and student-loan payments so you can move toward a stronger mortgage picture.

Third-party partner services — not PRMG underwriting. They do not guarantee approval or score improvement.

CredEvolv
Turn “not yet” into loan-ready

CredEvolv matches you to a loan-readiness path—HUD-certified nonprofit credit counseling, nonprofit debt management, or a self-paced DIY option—then works the plan until you’re ready to re-approach a mortgage. Request a connection and your loan officer will make the introduction.

Three paths under one roof

Nonprofit credit counseling

One-on-one with a HUD-certified, NFCC-member counselor: full credit review, a personalized plan, and monthly check-ins—typically a few months to goal.

Nonprofit debt management

When high balances or DTI is the blocker, a nonprofit program negotiates with creditors and consolidates into one structured payment—not debt settlement or credit repair.

CredEvolvIQ (DIY)

A self-guided credit-building subscription with score monitoring and a personalized roadmap—if you prefer to move at your own pace.

  • Nonprofit counseling and debt help—not for-profit credit repair
  • You’re matched to the path that fits; progress can be shared back with your loan officer
  • Available in all 50 states; programs are typically paid by you, not the lender

Key facts about refinancing

Refinance FAQ

Which refinance program fits my loan?

It starts with the loan you already have. FHA Streamline is for existing FHA loans; VA IRRRL for existing VA; USDA Streamlined Assist for existing USDA; RefiNow/Refi Possible for certain Fannie/Freddie conventional loans; and conventional rate-and-term when those specialty paths do not apply.

What is the difference between FHA Streamline and VA IRRRL?

Both are simplified refinances of the same agency loan type. FHA Streamline is for FHA-to-FHA and must show a net tangible benefit. VA IRRRL is a VA rate-reduction refinance with its own benefit and fee rules. Neither is a cash-out program.

Who qualifies for USDA Streamlined Assist?

You generally need an existing USDA loan, a meaningful payment reduction, and income that still meets USDA eligibility. This path is not for cash-out, and property/rural rules still apply.

What are RefiNow and Refi Possible—and when is standard conventional better?

RefiNow (Fannie) and Refi Possible (Freddie) are AMI-targeted assist programs for loans owned by those GSEs and require full documentation. If your income is above AMI limits, your loan is not Fannie/Freddie-owned as required, or you need a full conventional refinance, standard conventional rate-and-term is usually the better fit.

Cash-out refinance vs rate-and-term—what's the difference?

Rate-and-term refinances your balance (and allowable costs) to improve rate, term, or payment. Cash-out increases the loan to take equity as cash. Streamline/IRRRL/assist programs are generally rate/term only—not cash-out.

Should I cash out or use a HELOC?

Cash-out replaces your first mortgage with a larger one. A HELOC is a separate line of credit against equity and can be a better fit for shorter-term or flexible draws. Compare both—start with Get Qualified or explore Home Equity.
