VA Home Loan
No down payment requirement
VA loans are 100% financing and require no down payment funds from the borrower.
No private mortgage insurance requirement
VA loans do not require monthly mortgage insurance, rather the VA charges an upfront fee based on eligibility criteria.
Competitive interest rates
Contact our real estate department to find out today’s rates.
Flexible credit requirements
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) credit requirements focus on the borrower’s overall financial picture rather than single credit score, or negative credit event to determine eligibility.
