The most powerful home financing option available anywhere
True 100% financing - no money down required. Purchase your home with $0 out of pocket for the down payment.
Unlike FHA or conventional loans with less than 20% down, VA loans never require private mortgage insurance (PMI).
VA loans typically offer interest rates 0.25% to 0.5% lower than conventional loans, saving you thousands.
More flexible credit requirements and higher debt-to-income ratios allowed compared to conventional loans.
IRRRL program allows easy refinancing with reduced paperwork, no appraisal, and lower rates.
Single-family homes, condos, multi-unit properties (up to 4 units), and manufactured homes.
Lower your rate or tap into your home's equity
Also known as the "Streamline" refinance, this is the easiest way to lower your interest rate with minimal paperwork.
You must wait 210 days from your first mortgage payment and make at least 6 payments before you can do a VA streamline refinance.
Tap into your home's equity for home improvements, debt consolidation, or other needs.
Even if you initially used a different loan type, you may still be eligible for a VA loan if you meet service requirements.
