VA loans can offer an incredible benefit: for qualifying borrowers, there may be no required down payment.
But that doesn’t automatically mean there will be $0 needed at closing.
There can still be other costs involved, and sometimes seller or builder credits can help depending on how the transaction is structured.
So before you start shopping based on “VA means I need nothing,” I’d rather answer the better question:

Veterans earned a powerful home-loan benefit. You also deserve a clear explanation of how it works in your specific situation.
