Active members of the military qualify as long as they have been in service for 6 months or more. If you are a Reservists or members of the National Guard, you will have to wait 6 years. However, if you are called to active duty before that you become eligible after 181 days of service. Spouses of military members who died in the line of duty are also eligible to apply for a VA loan. To qualify for a Georgia VA loan, your spouse’s death must be as a direct result of a service-related injury or disability.
Loans offered by VA lenders do not require any down payment. Another advantage is that VA loans don’t come with insurance requirements regardless of how much down payment you make. That said, you should know that you are required to pay a one-time funding fee on your VA loan. The amount varies depending on the total mortgage amount.
