What Is a VA Loan?
A VA loan is a mortgage provided by private lenders and partially guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. It helps eligible veterans, active-duty service members, and qualifying surviving spouses finance a home with favorable terms—often with no down payment, no monthly PMI, and flexible credit requirements. As a benefit of military service, VA loans are built to make homeownership more accessible and affordable.
