A VA loan is a type of government loan, backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

What are the benefits of VA Loans?

VA loans are mortgages offered through a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs program. VA loans are available to active and veteran service personnel and their surviving spouses and are backed by the federal government but issued through private lenders.

The VA offers specific guarantees to private lenders that handle VA loans. Because of these guarantees, lenders will issue loans to Veterans and Service Members with no down payment or less stringent requirements than other loans.

If you qualify, you can buy or build a home, or refinance an existing home mortgage, with as little as $0 down, great rates and financing with no mandated cap. Another benefit over traditional mortgages is that there is no PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance, the monthly insurance fee charged to protect the bank until you reach at least 20% equity).

  • Completed at least 90 days of active duty service.
  • Have at least 6 years of service either in the Reserves or National Guard.
  • Served at least 181 days of active service during peacetime.
