VA loans through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs are available to qualified veterans and military members. The VA does not make loans, but insures loans made available to veterans. The VA guarantees loans made by us to give veterans better rates and terms.

The VA Loan Guaranty Program was put in place in 1944 to help veterans returning from war afford a home. Over 18 million veterans have since used the program. Along with offering loans to buy a home, a VA loan can be used to refinance a VA loan or take cash out of a home.
