What is the VA Loan?

If you’re wondering what a VA loan is, you’re not alone.  Many veterans are unaware or confused about the benefits that the VA loan program offers to them.  The program itself is very simple.

The VA backs loans provided by lenders to veterans, and this backing eliminates some of the risk associated with the loans being made.  This allows lenders to give veterans more competitive options and benefits.
