Conforming Fixed-Rate estimated monthly payment and APR example: A $225,000 loan amount with a 30-year term at an interest rate of 3.875% with a down-payment of 20% would result in an estimated principal and interest monthly payment of $1,058.04 over the full term of the loan with an Annual Percentage Rate (APR) of 3.946%.

    Estimated monthly payment and APR calculation are based on a down-payment of 20% and borrower-paid finance charges of 0.862% of the base loan amount. If the down payment is less than 20%, mortgage insurance may be required, which could increase the monthly payment and the APR. Estimated monthly payment does not include amounts for taxes and insurance premiums and the actual payment obligation will be greater.

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

    You have to meet at least one of the service requirements mentioned above. If you haven’t, you must be the spouse of a military member who lost their life in the line of duty, or as the result of a service-related disability. You usually can’t have remarried.

    How do I show that I’m eligible for a VA loan?

    To demonstrate eligibility, you’ll need to provide a valid Certificate of Eligibility (COE). Your loan officer can obtain the COE for you through the Department of Veterans Affairs.  A copy of your DD-214 may be needed to request the COE.

    What are some VA loan benefits?

    There are many VA loan benefits, since the program was designed to reward our nation’s servicemembers. Some of them are: 

    • lower mortgage rates
    • lower or no down payments
    • no private mortgage insurance (PMI)
    • excellent refinance program that helps buyers lower their payments or get cash back on equity
    • higher debt-to-income ratio allowed

    • help with closing costs. We can negiotiate with the seller to contribute up to 4% of the appraised value of the house towards certain closing costs (known as seller concessions).
