Unmatched Advantages of VA Loans

VA loans are one of the most powerful benefits available to those who have served our nation. Home Financing Center is proud to help Florida’s military community leverage these unique advantages.

No Down Payment

For most eligible borrowers, a VA loan requires no down payment, making homeownership more accessible.

No Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)

Unlike conventional loans with less than 20% down, VA loans do not require PMI, saving you significant monthly costs.

Competitive Interest Rates

VA loans often feature lower interest rates than conventional loans, leading to lower monthly payments.

Limited Closing Costs

The VA limits the closing costs lenders can charge, and some costs can even be paid by the seller.

No Prepayment Penalties

You can pay off your loan early without incurring any fees.

Assumable Loans

VA loans are assumable, which can be an attractive feature for future buyers.

Our team at Home Financing Center has deep expertise in VA loans and is dedicated to serving those who have served us.
Let us help you navigate your path to homeownership.

Occupancy

The home must be your primary residence.

VA Funding Fee

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our services.

What is the difference between a fixed-rate and an adjustable-rate mortgage?

A fixed-rate mortgage has an interest rate that remains the same throughout the life of the loan. An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) has an interest rate that can change over time, usually in response to interest rate fluctuations in the market.

 

The interest rate on a home mortgage is determined by several factors, including the loan-to-value ratio, the borrower’s credit score, the loan term, and the type of loan.

 

The amount of money you need for a down payment depends on the type of loan you are getting and the lender’s requirements. Generally, you should expect to put down at least 3–5% of the purchase price of the home.

 

Closing costs are fees associated with the purchase of a home that are paid at closing. These fees can include loan origination fees, appraisal fees, title fees, and more.

 

When applying for a home mortgage, you will typically need to provide the lender with your financial information and documents, such as pay stubs, bank statements, and tax returns. You may also need to provide proof of employment and proof of assets.
