FAQ

Frequently asked questions

VA loans are for current and veteran service members, including Reserves and National Guard, surviving spouses and eligible dependents. To be eligible, you must have satisfactory credit, meet income qualifications, and have a valid Certificate of Eligibility (COE).

There are several different types of VA loans, including purchase loans and cash-out refinance loans.

Mortgage applications require documentation of financial history. For a VA loan, you will be asked to provide your Certificate of Eligibility (COE), proof of income (2-year minimum of employment), and a list of outstanding debts or financial obligations. Other documentation may also be required.

VA loans usually require no down payment and have lower minimum credit score requirements. You also avoid paying private mortgage insurance (PMI), which most conventional loans require when you make a down payment of less than 20%. There is a one-time funding fee with a VA loan that can be financed into the loan.

Private mortgage insurance (PMI) is usually required insurance paid by the homebuyer when the down payment is less than 20% of the home sale price. With a VA loan, you won’t have to pay for private mortgage insurance, no matter what your down payment may be.
