VA Home Loans & Mortgages - Apply, Info & Rates
VA Home Mortgages
Serving our country is commendable and those individuals who do so should be allotted certain privileges. In turn, the government has made the home buying or refinancing process trouble-free for VA mortgages:
Available to active military members, veterans and qualified surviving spouses.
No down payment (for qualified borrowers).
No Mortgage Insurance required (for qualified borrowers).
Low VA Loan rates, because all loans are insured by the federal government.
Free counseling available from the VA in case of financial difficulties.
Refinancing is easy as you can refinance up to 100% of your loans value.
With all new home purchases an "escape clause" is required as safety margin for the VA loan applicant. This clause protects the buyer from being obligated to a VA mortgage loan when the appraised value of the home doesn't match the selling price.
For those veterans looking at an IRRRL (Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan) refinance, if you have a credit score of 660 or higher an appraisal may not be required.
