The fees a veteran may pay are limited when obtaining a VA guaranteed home loan: the lender\/broker may only charge the veteran a flat fee up to one percent (1%) of the loan amount to cover the lender\/broker&#8217;s costs and services, which are not reimbursable as &#8220;itemized fees.&#8221;\u00a0 For an IRRRL, the 1% origination fee may not exceed one percent (1%) of the existing VA loan balance of the loan being refinanced plus the cost of any energy efficient less any cash payments from the veteran, and if an origination fee is charged, lenders\/brokers may NOT assess veterans any other fees other than the allowable fees shown below (as long as they are reasonable and customary).
