VA Loans

VA loans are available to veterans, active-duty military personnel, and eligible surviving spouses. They’re supported by the federal government and provided to borrowers by private lenders. The government guarantees a portion of the loan, enabling lenders to offer more favorable terms. Borrowers are eligible if they have served on active duty and have an honorable discharge, after a minimum of 90 days of service during wartime, or after a minimum of 181 continuous days of peacetime. VA loans are offered with a fixed- or adjustable-rate.

What are the biggest benefits of a VA loan?

  • VA loans come with a no down payment option; this may make it easier for you to become a homeowner and save money on upfront costs.
  • VA loans often have lower interest rates than conventional products, which can save you money on monthly payments and overall loan costs.
  • No monthly mortgage insurance is required, which could save you hundreds of dollars each month and reduce the overall cost of your mortgage.
  • Lifetime benefit.
