Purchase with $0 Down
- A VA mortgage is one of the only loan programs that still allows the borrower to finance 100% of the home's value and purchase with $0 down.
- Now more than ever banks are requiring large down payments for conventional loans. In many cases they require 10-20% down, putting home ownership out of reach for many prospective buyers.
- How much will $0 down save you? Conventional loans will require a minimum of 5% down, and in many cases as much as 10% and 20%.
| Loan Amount | 5% Down | 10% Down | 20% Down |
| $150,000 | $7,500 | $15,000 | $30,000 |
| $250,000 | $12,500 | $25,000 | $50,000 |
| $350,000 | $17,500 | $35,000 | $70,000 |
| $450,000 | $22,500 | $45,000 | $90,000 |
Lower Your Monthly Payment
A VA loan offers two benefits that will substantially lower your monthly payment.
- PMI, or private mortgage insurance, is not required on a VA loan. PMI is an added monthly expense required for conventional loans where the borrower finances more than 80% of the home's value.
- Interest rates are also lower with a VA Loan, typically 0.5%-1.0% lower than a conventional loan. A lower rate combined with monthly PMI savings can substantially lower your monthly payment.
Getting Qualified is Easier
The qualification guidelines are less stringent for VA mortgages.
- Because the loan is backed by the government, banks have relaxed the often strict lending rules for VA loan applicants making them easier to obtain.
