What is an VA loan?

VA loan basics

  • VA loans are backed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), which allows lenders to offer more favorable terms to members of the military.
  • VA loans are available to qualified borrowers — including veterans and active-duty service members — who meet the eligibility requirements established by the VA.
  • VA loans require you to pay a one-time VA funding fee, which can be rolled into your loan amount or paid at closing.

VA loan benefits

  • Up to 100% financing may be available on VA loans for qualified borrowers. That means you could buy a home with little or no down payment.
  • If you do have a down payment, you can use funds from gifts or grants toward that amount, as well as any closing costs.
  • Flexible guidelines may help you qualify even with a lower income or credit score.
  • VA loans don't require mortgage insurance, so you may pay less each month than with a conventional low-down payment mortgage.
