Who can use a VA loan

VA home loans are guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. You may be eligible if you are:

  • A veteran who meets the service requirements
  • On active duty, after the minimum service period
  • A current or former member of the National Guard or Reserve who meets the service requirements
  • The surviving spouse of a service member, in some cases

Your Certificate of Eligibility (COE) confirms it. Stella can request it for you, usually in minutes.

What makes a VA loan different

  • No down payment for eligible borrowers with full entitlement
  • No monthly mortgage insurance, which conventional and FHA loans usually charge with a small down payment
  • A one-time VA funding fee, which can be added to the loan. Veterans receiving VA disability compensation are generally exempt
  • The home must be your primary residence

Refinancing a VA loan

If you already have a VA loan, an Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL) can lower your rate with less paperwork than a new loan. A VA cash-out refinance lets you borrow against your equity. The break-even calculator shows whether the savings cover the cost.

Common questions

Do I need a down payment for a VA loan?
Not if you are eligible with full entitlement and the home appraises at the purchase price. You still pay closing costs, though the seller can contribute toward them.
Can I use a VA loan more than once?
Yes. Your entitlement can be restored after you sell and pay off the loan, and in some cases you can have two VA loans at once.
What credit score do I need?
The VA does not set a minimum score. Lenders set their own, so a broker can look for one whose rules fit your file.
