VA Home Loan Benefits

No one takes care of Veterans like NewDay USA
About VA Home Loans

As a Veteran, you’ve earned a valuable benefit with your service - your VA Home Loan benefit.

VA loans are backed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, which guarantees a portion of the loan. This guarantee allows private lenders like NewDay USA to offer favorable terms, including options with no down payment and flexible credit requirements.


In fact, the VA has granted NewDay USA automatic authority.
When banks say “no” to a Veteran, NewDay USA can say “yes.”

What are the Benefits of VA Home Loans?

VA home loan benefits include:
Competitively Low Interest Rates
With a portion of the loan guaranteed by the VA, lenders are able to offer competitive interest rates, sometimes lower than conventional loans. Over thirty years, that can mean lower monthly repayments and overall savings of tens of thousands of dollars.
Home Loan Guarantee Benefit

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs guarantees a portion of the loan. This enables lenders to offer more favorable terms, which could mean easier access to a mortgage, as well as massive long-term savings.


No Down Payment Required

The median down payment for all home buyers is around 14%. For a $300,000 home, if a Veteran opts for a NewDay Zero Down VA Home Purchase Loan, that’s $42,000 that a Veteran doesn’t have to put down! 


Limited Closing Costs

Not only can one of the closing costs (the VA Funding Fee) be rolled into your loan, there are limits to some of the closing costs typically associated with a loan. For example, the loan origination fee is limited to 1% of the loan amount.
No Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)
As an eligible Veteran, you can avoid this cost and save thousands of dollars every year. Enjoy a Lifetime Benefit You can use the VA loan guaranty multiple times.

VA Home Loan FAQs

While there are numerous VA home loan benefits, one of the most helpful is the ability to purchase a home with no down payment, making homeownership more accessible for eligible Veterans and service members.

VA home loans are generally considered good value, due to exclusive benefits like no down payment, competitive interest rates, and no requirement for private mortgage insurance (PMI).

While this depends on individual circumstances, generally speaking VA loans offer benefits over conventional loans, which often have stricter credit requirements, require a down payment, and may need PMI. 

Eligible Veterans, active-duty service members, National Guard members, Reservists, and some surviving spouses can enjoy VA home loan benefits. Contact NewDay USA to discuss your eligibility.
