For veterans, active duty service members, and eligible surviving spouses shopping for a home in California, VA loans present a great opportunity.

With this type of mortgage, you can move into a home with no down payment. And that is just one of the many benefits that make VA loans so competitive.

What is a VA Mortgage?

A VA mortgage is a loan with backing by the US Department of Veterans Affairs. This backing protects lenders if borrowers default.

How does that benefit you? By making it easy for you to qualify for a mortgage, and by ensuring your loan comes with advantageous features and terms.

Who Qualifies for a VA Mortgage in California?

Any of the following can potentially be eligible for a VA mortgage:

  • A veteran
  • An active-duty service member
  • An eligible surviving spouse

Members who have served in any military branch can apply for a VA mortgage, including activated members of the National Guard or Reserve.

A Certificate of Eligibility (COE) is required at the time you submit your application. To make it easy, we can obtain this for you.

Just as would be the case were you applying for a conventional mortgage, your credit score, debt-to-income ratio, income and employment status will be assessed.

There is also a minimum service requirement before you can purchase a home using a VA loan. 90 days of active duty wartime service or 181 days of continuous active duty peacetime service will usually fulfil this requirement. But you might have a different requirement depending on when you served.

You do not need to check this qualification on your own. We can figure out whether you have met it after you tell us more about your service record.
