Whether you’re a Veteran, Reservist or currently on active duty, a VA loan can help you become a homeowner quicker than you could ever imagine! The main benefit of this loan, supported by the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, is that it allows you to purchase a home without a down payment. But that’s not the only perk it comes with. Let’s explore all the ways a VA loan can help you.
Benefits:
- As stated above, most applicants can qualify for a home without a down payment. When applying for a VA loan, the VA will determine your eligibility and insurance for the loan, then a private lender disburses the loan.
- If you’ve served on active duty and have a discharge, you become eligible after a minimum of 90 days of service during wartime or 181 continuous days during peacetime.
- You don’t have to pay a monthly mortgage insurance premium. This allows you to focus your finances on creating a home that’s truly yours!
- Interest rates are flexible, plus there’s no pre-payment penalty.
- VA loans are assumable as long as the person assuming the loan is qualified.
- You don’t have to be a first-time homebuyer, and you may even be eligible to have your VA funding fee waved.
- Best of all, you can feel secure knowing the VA is behind you with additional assistance if you ever have an issue making your home loan payments in the future.
