What are VA Home Loans?
Designed to make home buying easier for veterans, active-duty service members, and eligible surviving spouses, our VA home loan program offers unparalleled benefits and flexibility, allowing you to enjoy a smooth and affordable path to owning your own home.
A VA Home Loan is a mortgage option backed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, designed to help eligible veterans, active-duty service members, and some surviving spouses buy, build, or refinance a home. The program offers favorable terms such as no down payment, no private mortgage insurance (PMI), and competitive interest rates.
You may qualify for a VA Home Loan if you are:
- An active-duty service member, veteran, or National Guard/Reserve member who meets minimum service requirements, or
- A surviving spouse of a veteran who died in service or as a result of a service-related disability.
To confirm your eligibility, you’ll need a Certificate of Eligibility (COE), which Sound can likely help you obtain.
VA Home Loans offer several advantages, including:
- No down payment (in most cases)
- No PMI, which lowers your monthly payment
- Competitive interest rates
- Flexible credit guidelines compared to conventional loans
- Limits on closing costs, helping keep upfront expenses manageable
