What are the Benefits of a VA Loan?
- Purchase a home at a competitive interest rate often without requiring a down payment or private mortgage insurance, which gives you more savings.
- Cash-Out Refinance options allow you to take cash out of your home equity to take care of concerns like paying off debt, funding school, or making home improvements.
- If you have a service-related disability, you may qualify for waived funding fee, reducing closing costs.
- Borrowers can often refinance to a lower rate within the VA program without re-qualifying for the program.
