Punta Gorda VA Loan Rates, Closing Costs & Stats
PUNTA GORDA, FL
A VA loan is a mortgage loan that’s backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for those who
have served or are presently serving in the U.S. military. The VA does not directly lend,
it guarantees the loans made by private lenders to veterans, active military personnel, and qualifying military spouses.
The most obvious benefit of VA loans is that no downpayment is necessary to purchase a home. They will
also typically have significantly lower fees-- meaning that if you're eligible to receive a VA loan,
it will likely be the most favorable option. VA loans come in 3 varities: purchase, refinance and cash out
refis.
