VA Loans Expertise

As a Top VA lender, we at Navy Federal understand the unique needs of servicemembers and their families, and can help you take advantage of every benefit you’ve earned. We’re here to help you through the home-buying experience by providing low VA home loan rates, resources and membership benefits.

VA loans are backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs and offer exclusive mortgage benefits to eligible servicemembers, veterans and their spouses. A certificate of eligibility is required and can be obtained from the VA by your home loan advisor. Maximum loan amounts are determined by the property location.

Navy Federal VA Loans

VA loans offer many benefits. They're an excellent option if you qualify and are looking to buy a home.

  • Options with No Down Payment

    Some lenders require a down payment of up to 20%, but because Navy Federal VA Home Loans don’t require any money down, you can buy a house now without waiting years to save.1

  • No Private Mortgage Insurance Required

    Most lenders require the borrower to purchase PMI unless they are able to make a down payment of 20%. This loan doesn’t require PMI, which saves you money each month.

  • Seller Contribution of Up to 4%

    The seller is allowed to contribute up to 4% of the value of the home toward your closing costs, saving you money.

  • Refinance Options Available

    If you already have a mortgage and want to refinance for a different interest rate or shorter term, this loan may also be a good fit.

The interest rate above shows the option of purchasing discount points to lower a loan's interest rate and monthly payment. One point amounts to 1% of the loan amount and is paid at closing. Points don't always have to be round numbers. Purchasing 1.5 points would cost $3,000 on a $200,000 mortgage.

The cash-back bonus is only available with the purchase or sale of your home through the use of a program-referred and -approved real estate agent. The size of your cash-back award depends on the value of the property you are buying or selling. Obtaining the full $8,000 cash-back award requires transacting in a property valued at $1.75 million or greater. To calculate the size of your potential cash back, please visit realestateperk.com/RealtyPlus. All real estate transactions are negotiable. Contact RealtyPlus for terms and conditions. Standard listing fees apply. The program award is not available in certain transactions with restricted agent commissions (including many new construction, For Sale by Owner, or For Sale by iBuyer transactions). Your assigned agent can help you identify any transactions where the award would not be available.
