Are You a Veteran? Learn the Benefits of a VA Home Loan
From VA's website: VA-guaranteed loans are available for homes for your occupancy. To be eligible, you must have satisfactory credit, sufficient income to meet the expected monthly obligations, and a valid Certificate of Eligibility (COE).
These are the top benefits of a VA Home Loan:
- It's 100% financing. That means no down payment.
- You can use it to buy or refinance a home. You can even use it to refinance and get cash-out of your home.
- There is no monthly MI.
- If you have used your benefit once, it doesn't go away. You can use it multiple times. It's a life-time benefit.
- There is no prepayment penalty.
- The interest rates are lower than conventional rates and the VA limits the fees that can be charged to a Veteran.
- The credit requirements are more relaxed than other loan programs. VA only has a 24 month waiting period from bankruptcy or foreclosure.
