One of the substantial benefits offered to active duty service members, veterans, national guard and reserve members is the VA Home Loan program.
Many military service members don’t know about this benefit or need help with understanding how to access and use it.
MarketWatch states that some industry insiders say too many veterans are steered away from VA loans and some vets don’t even know about the program.
According to Forbes and Trulia, veterans are more likely to be homeowners than other adults. Households headed by veterans have a 79% homeownership rate, significantly higher than the 63% rate for households headed by civilian non-veterans.
Did you know that even if you’ve used the VA home loan benefit previously that it’s possible to tap into VA home loan financing for a second home in the future? (check out valoans.com for a quick overview)
There’s tons of information online about accessing your VA home loan benefit but if you’re in the local area and would like your unique questions answered from the perspective of realtors and mortgage lenders who are important to your success in securing a home loan of any type and purchasing a home, we invite you to the VA Home Loans Seminar later this month!
