I got a call today from a past client who’s a veteran that I helped purchase a home years ago using his VA eligibility. He asked me a question that I think a lot of veterans are surprised to hear the answer to:
“Can I buy another home using my VA benefits without selling my current home?”
The answer is yes — in many cases, it’s possible.
Many veterans don’t realize they may still have what’s called bonus entitlement available, even after using a VA loan. Depending on how much entitlement was used previously and the loan amount for the next purchase, some veterans may still qualify to purchase again using their VA benefits.
Sometimes that can still mean zero down. Other times, there may be a down payment involved. Every situation is unique, which is why it’s important to have someone help you review the numbers carefully.
I’m helping this client work through that process right now.
If you’re a veteran and have questions about your VA loan eligibility or home financing options, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to help.
Happy house hunting.
