Your Guide to VA Loan Eligibility and Benefits

VA loans are available to veterans, active-duty service members, National Guard members, and certain surviving spouses. Key eligibility requirements include:

  • 90 days of consecutive active service during wartime
  • 181 days of active service during peacetime
  • 6 years of service in the National Guard or Reserves

Benefits of VA loans include no down payment, no private mortgage insurance (PMI), competitive interest rates, and no early repayment penalties. VA loans can also be used for fixer-uppers through VA renovation loans, which allow you to purchase and improve properties in need of repairs. A VA-approved lender will assist with the loan process, including securing your Certificate of Eligibility (COE).
