VA loan questions
Who is eligible for a VA home loan?
Eligibility generally depends on your length and type of service. Veterans, active-duty service members, some National Guard and Reserve members and certain surviving spouses may qualify. Your lender can request your Certificate of Eligibility (COE) to confirm.
Do VA loans really require no down payment?
Eligible buyers with full entitlement can often buy with no down payment, subject to lender approval. VA loans also don't require monthly private mortgage insurance.
What is the VA funding fee?
Most VA buyers pay a one-time funding fee that can be paid at closing or rolled into the loan. Veterans who receive VA disability compensation are generally exempt. Your lender will confirm the amount for your situation.
Can I use my VA loan more than once?
Yes. The VA benefit can be used more than once, and in some cases you can have more than one VA loan at a time. A VA-approved lender can review your remaining entitlement.
Are there special requirements for the home?
VA loans require the home to be your primary residence and to meet the VA's minimum property requirements, which the VA appraiser checks. I'll help you spot potential issues before you make an offer.
Loan terms and eligibility are set by the VA and your lender. Talk with a VA-approved lender for details about your situation.
