How to Qualify for a VA Loan

Be a member of the military

In order to qualify for a VA loan, you must be an active or retired service member, a veteran, spouse, or another specific eligible beneficiary.

Have your finances in order

VA loan applicants typically have a credit score of around 600 or more, sufficient income, and a valid Certificate of Eligibility. These qualifications can vary from person to person, so be sure to examine your personal financial situation before applying.

Purchase a primary residence

VA loans can only be used to purchase a primary residence. Single-family homes, condos, and other types of properties are all eligible. Sometimes, the loan can be used to build or repair a home, as well as refinance an existing loan.

Why Choose a VA Loan?

$0 down payment

Unlike conventional loans, where you have to put down anywhere from 5% to 20% of your home's overall value, the VA loan does not require a down payment.

No private mortgage insurance

VA loans are guaranteed by the government, so banks will not require you to purchase private mortgage insurance (PMI) for your loan.

Low interest rates

Believe it or not, VA loans have some of the lowest interest rates available. Most loans come with rates between 2.2% and 3% (as of 2021), depending on the duration of the mortgage.

Easy to qualify

Because VA loans are backed by the federal government and not a private lender, it's significantly easier to qualify.

Lower closing costs

For VA loans, the seller will typically pay some of a buyer's loan-related closing costs.
