3 Primary Benefits of the VA Home Loan
$0 Down Payment
No Private Mortgage Insurance
Lifetime Benefit
With the VA home loan benefit, eligible buyers can purchase their home with no down payment required without being penalized with private mortgage insurance. Additionally, the VA home loan benefit is a lifetime benefit, meaning that it can be used more than once. In fact, it is possible to use the VA home loan benefit on more than one home at the same time.
To be eligible for the VA home loan benefit, you need to meet the minimum service requirements that are established by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and have a valid Certificate of Eligibility (COE).
To verify eligibility, your lender may need a copy of your Form DD-214, Statement of Service, Retirement Points Statement, or other proof of qualifying service history.
