Preparing For a Down Payment: Year-End Savings Strategies
As the year comes to an end, you may be beginning to think ...
There’s nothing like the feeling of coming home. Our service members know this better than anyone, and that’s why the U.S. government created the VA home loan program in 1944 to give them the comfort of knowing that no matter where their service takes them, their home will always be here.
Who Is Eligible for VA Home Loans?
VA home loans are designed to help veterans, active-duty military and National Guard members, reservists, and surviving spouses afford the home they deserve. Eligibility varies depending on the length and type of service committed, but the Department of Veterans Affairs is responsible for determining who qualifies. We’ll help you get a certificate of eligibility once we receive your DD-214.
Zero Down Payment
