Question by 5ofus: Can I do an FHA refinance with no money in savings?
My husband and I are trying to refinance our mortgage. It would be a 30 year FHA loan. Does anyone know if you can do an FHA refinance with no money in savings? We are currently living almost check to check right now. My husband had a salary decrease last year along with weeks off unpaid (due to slow business) and we went straight through our savings covering the lost wages. We are hoping to build it back up this year now that his regular salary will back soon.

reserves are not required to refinance with FHA. In fact if you have an FHA insured note now there is a streamline process that is much easier
