→ Private lenders, including banks and mortgage companies, offer VA loans. The VA does not issue the loans; instead, they guarantee a portion of the loan, which protects the lender in case you default on your mortgage payments. This guarantee allows lenders to offer competitive interest rates and terms to eligible borrowers. When you apply for a VA loan, your lender will request your COE in order to verify your eligibility.
→ If you are eligible for a VA loan, you may be able to get a lower interest rate than you would with a conventional loan. VA loans are available with fixed-rate or adjustable-rate terms. The current VA
loan rates are as follows:
- 30-year fixed-rate: low-interest rate
- 15-year fixed-rate: lower interest rate
- Adjustable rate (ARM): lower interest rate for the first few years, then may adjust annually
