The VA loan process is designed to make homeownership more accessible for veterans and active-duty service members. It begins with prequalification, where you provide basic financial information to a VA-approved lender. Next, you obtain a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) from the VA to confirm your eligibility for a VA loan. Then, with the help of a VA-approved lender, you complete a loan application, providing detailed financial and employment information. The VA requires a home appraisal to ensure the property's value meets or exceeds the loan amount. Once your application is complete, the lender reviews your information and makes a decision. If approved, you'll attend a closing meeting to sign the necessary paperwork and finalize the loan. With its flexible qualification requirements and competitive terms, the VA loan process offers veterans and active-duty service members a straightforward path to homeownership with ease and affordability.
