VA-backed purchase loan

VA loans

Eligible veterans, service members, and some surviving spouses may use a VA-backed purchase loan. A down payment may not be required, although closing costs still matter. VA loans do not require monthly mortgage insurance, but a one-time funding fee may apply unless the borrower is exempt.

Eligibility and entitlement, property details, lender approval, and the final terms all need review. Ask how the funding fee, any down payment, and the rest of the closing costs compare in your case.

Where should I start?

Start with your Certificate of Eligibility and your homebuying goals. We also need to review your income, credit, existing obligations and the property.

Does no down payment mean no cash to close?

Closing costs and prepaid items can still apply. Review your funding fee status, any available credits and the actual cash-to-close estimate before deciding how much money to set aside.
