Debunking VA Lending Myths
Myth 1: Only specific lenders can issue VA Loans
One of the most common buyer myths of VA lending is that you must use a lender that specifies military or VA common words in their business name. This is not true. There are several lenders both locally and on-line that can process VA-backed loans.
Which lender is best for you? Our agents can give you several lender options to consider.
Myth 2: VA loans are difficult
The stigma that VA lending is difficult compared to other loan types just isn’t true. Most of the time, the safety requirements are similar, and a VA loan could even be easier to navigate than other loan types.

Benefits to a VA Loan
-
As Low as 0% down
VA loans allow eligible Veterans to purchase a home with no down payment, making homeownership more accessible and affordable.
-
No PMI insurance
Unlike conventional loans, VA loans don’t require Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI), potentially saving borrowers hundreds of dollars each month.
-
Qualified Veterans may have no funding fee
Some Veterans, such as those with service-connected disabilities, may be exempt from paying the VA funding fee, further reducing their upfront costs.
-
Low interest rates
VA loans often offer lower interest rates compared to conventional loans, potentially saving borrowers thousands of dollars over the life of the loan.
-
Flexible credit guidelines
VA loans typically have more lenient credit requirements than conventional loans, making it easier for Veterans with less-than-perfect credit to qualify for a mortgage.
-
Tidewater and re-evaluation appraisal requests
The VA’s unique Tidewater process allows for a second chance to support the purchase price if the initial appraisal falls short, potentially saving deals that might otherwise fall through.
-
Lifetime benefit can be reused
The VA loan benefit is not a one-time opportunity; eligible Veterans can use this benefit multiple times throughout their lives, whether for new purchases or refinancing.
