What You Need to Know about VA Home Loans


Make your VA and military benefits work for you:

  • With our no down payment option, you can finance 100% of the purchase price of your home with a VA loan. 
  • The VA has specific qualification requirements for a VA-backed home loan. Talk to a Home Loan Expert who is ready to answer any questions about your qualifications or the process.
  • No mortgage insurance costs - even if you don't make a down payment of 20%. VA borrowers do not pay mortgage insurance, keeping your total costs lower. 
  • If you receive a Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH), you can use your allowance to pay for some or all of your monthly payment.
  • We are deeply committed to helping more active-duty military and veterans finance homes, so we offer flexible credit standards.


Choose from low-cost VA loan options to put a mortgage within reach!

  • The VA home loan program is available to qualified borrowers who are first-time buyers, repeat buyers or those planning to refinance.
  • No pre-payment penalty - make extra payments if or when it works for you to pay off your loan faster!
  • Fixed or adjustable interest rates. VA loans offer fixed or adjustable rates as good as and sometimes better than conventional loans. With a fixed rate, your monthly payment (principal + interest) will not fluctuate. That means it is easier for you to budget your monthly payment. With an adjustable rate, you can take advantage of a low rate for a fixed amount of time. This is especially beneficial if you are planning to be in your home for fewer than seven years.

  •  Academy Bank is recognized as an approved VA lender. Because we have VA Automatic Approval status, you can work directly with us rather than having to also coordinate with the VA. We help you get started, and we stay with you throughout the process.
