VA Home Loans

BayCoast Mortgage cares about serving those who served our country.

BayCoast Mortgage is honored to help service members, veterans, and eligible surviving spouses become homeowners. Through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), we are proud to offer VA housing-related programs to help you buy, repair, retain, or adapt a home for your own personal occupancy.

VA Home Loans

Looking to buy a home? If you’re a veteran or active service member, a VA Home Loan may be an option for you. VA Loans typically provide eligible borrowers with more flexible criteria than conventional loans.

One of the biggest advantages of this type of loan is that qualified veterans and military members can make a purchase without a down payment, which may help speed up the homeownership process. VA Loans also generally offer lower interest rates for both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgages. Because no Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) is required, a VA Loan may be a much more affordable option for military families.

Benefits of a VA Home Loan include:

  • No down payment and 100% purchase financing
  • 90% loan-to-value cash out refinance
  • No Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) required
  • Flexible debt-to-income requirements
  • Low fixed rates and adjustable rates
  • Lock in your rate for 90 days – if rates rise, you’re protected!
  • In most cases, no upfront, out-of-pocket expenses
