Advantages To Using A VA Loan Instead Of Cash When Buying A Home

1. Advantages To Using A VA Loan Instead of Cash When Buying A Home

2. The U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs has provided guaranteed home loans for veterans for 70 years.

3. These loans have enabled millions of active duty military personnel and veterans to get loans at favorable rates that make home ownership accessible for all military members.

4. Even if you have cash to pay for a home, these loans can provide a number of significant benefits to those who qualify.

5. Advantages of VA Guaranteed Loans Over Cash Purchases

6. Although you may have the cash on hand to purchase your home, you should consider the many advantages that a VA home loan can provide. These include:

7. · Allows you to keep your cash for other purposes

8. · Allows the buyer to negotiate a good interest rate for a home loan

9. · Eliminates the additional cost of mortgage insurance

10. · Provides prepayment without penalty

11. · Allows buyers to roll VA funding costs into the loan to reduce cash outlay

12. · Provides a home interest tax deduction

13. · Allows homeowners to easily refinance the loan through the Interest Rate Reduction Refinance program, which offers a streamlined process for refinancing previously held VA home loans

14. · Provides accurate information about the appraised value of the property

15. · Allows a new buyer of the property to assume the VA home loan.

16. · Provides VA help with re-negotiating terms in case of non-payment of the loan

17. Determining Eligibility For A VA Guaranteed Loan

18. Not all lenders participate in the VA guaranteed home loan program.

19. However, many do participate. These lenders generally have specially trained personnel or departments to handle VA home loans and know the protocol for applying to the program.

20. You must fulfill a number of requirements to be eligible for a VA guaranteed home loan.

21. · You must have stable, reliable income to make payments on the loan.

22. · Your income must be enough to leave a certain amount for other expenses in addition to the loan payment.

23. · You must be an active duty service member or a veteran of past service.

24. · You must have been discharged honorably.

25. · You must have good credit.

26. · You must submit a Certificate of Eligibility, which documents the period of your past service or authenticates your current service.

28. Your lender will provide details about getting your Certificate of Eligibility. You can also get information on the VA website.

29. Using Your Cash For Other Purposes

32. The benefits of the VA home loan program allow you to enjoy significant advantages without tying up your cash.
