Over 14 million Veterans and military personnel have realized the benefits of the VA Home Loan Program. We can help you buy your dream home, refinance to lower your monthly payment or take advantage of your home’s equity for home improvements, pay off debt and more.

VA Home Loan Allowable Fees VS Non-Allowable Fees
Understanding VA Home Loan Fees: Navigating the costs associated with a VA Home Loan is essential for a smooth home-buying process. VA regulations specify which fees are allowable and which are non-allowable. Allowable fees include charges for appraisal, credit reports, title insurance, recording fees, and a VA funding fee. Non-allowable fees, on the other hand, are those that the veteran cannot be charged, such as attorney fees, prepayment penalties, and lender-specific fees like processing or underwriting. By being aware of these distinctions, you can ensure a transparent and cost-effective journey to homeownership using your VA benefits.
VA Mortgage Options
At OneTrust Home Loans, we are honored to support our nation's veterans and active-duty service members by offering VA mortgage options tailored to their unique needs. The VA (Veterans Affairs) loan program is a government-backed initiative designed to help veterans, active-duty military personnel, and eligible surviving spouses achieve the dream of homeownership with significant benefits and flexible terms.
Our VA Mortgage Options Include:
VA Purchase Loans: Designed for purchasing a new home with zero down payment, making homeownership more accessible for veterans and their families.
VA Cash-Out Refinance Loans: Allowing veterans to refinance their existing mortgage and take out cash from their home’s equity for purposes such as home improvements, debt consolidation, or other financial needs.
VA Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL): Also known as the VA Streamline Refinance, this option helps veterans refinance their existing VA loan to a lower interest rate with minimal documentation and underwriting requirements.
VA Energy Efficient Mortgage (EEM): Enabling veterans to finance energy-efficient improvements to their home by rolling the costs into their VA loan.
Benefits of Using VA Eligibility for Home Purchase:
Zero Down Payment: One of the most significant advantages of VA loans is the ability to purchase a home with no down payment, making it easier to become a homeowner without needing substantial savings upfront.
Competitive Interest Rates: VA loans typically offer lower interest rates compared to conventional loans, helping veterans save money over the life of the loan.
No Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI): Unlike conventional loans, VA loans do not require PMI, which can result in substantial monthly savings for borrowers.
Flexible Credit Requirements: VA loans often have more lenient credit requirements, making them accessible to veterans with less-than-perfect credit histories.
Limited Closing Costs: The VA limits the amount of closing costs that veterans can be charged, reducing the overall cost of obtaining a home loan.
Assumable Loans: VA loans are assumable, meaning that if you sell your home, the buyer can take over your existing VA loan, potentially making your property more attractive to prospective buyers.
Foreclosure Avoidance Support: The VA provides resources and support to help veterans avoid foreclosure, offering assistance programs for those facing financial difficulties.
No Prepayment Penalties: VA loans do not have prepayment penalties, allowing borrowers to pay off their loan early without incurring additional fees.

General Qualifications for VA Mortgage Loans
To qualify for any VA mortgage loan, you must meet the following criteria:
Service Requirements: Veterans, active-duty service members, National Guard members, and reservists must meet specific service duration requirements. Surviving spouses may also be eligible.
Certificate of Eligibility (COE): Obtain a COE from the VA to verify your eligibility. This can be done through your lender, online, or by mail.
Credit and Income: While VA loans are known for their flexible credit requirements, maintaining a stable income and manageable debt levels is crucial. Lenders will review your credit history, debt-to-income ratio, and overall financial stability.
Property Requirements: The property must meet VA standards, including safety, soundness, and sanitation. For construction and renovation loans, detailed plans and costs must be submitted and approved.
