Broward County FL VA Mortgage Lenders

The U.S. government created a military VA mortgage loan guaranty program to help returning service members purchase Broward Florida Homes. The result, the VA mortgage Loan, is a mortgage loan issued by approved Broward FL VA mortgage lenders such as US Mortgage Lenders and guaranteed by the federal government. Since its inception, the VA mortgage loan program has helped place more than 10 million Florida veterans and their families into an affordable Broward Florida Home financing situation through its distinct advantages over traditional mortgages.

Today, the VA Broward Florida Home Loan program is more important than ever to service members. In recent years, lenders nationwide have tightened their lending requirements in the wake of the Broward County FL housing market collapse, making the VA mortgage loan a lifeline for military Broward Florida Homebuyers, many of whom find difficulty when faced with tough credit standards and down payment requirements.

Buying a new Broward FL Broward Florida Home for the very first time is an awesome experience for all Broward Florida Home buyers. Once you have a place of your own, you can take pride in ownership, build an investment for your future and provide a place where friends and family can gather and build memories.  Having your own Broward Florida Home means that you have the freedom to decorate it to suit your personal desires and needs.

But, before you can relax in the comfort of your Broward Florida Home, there is a complex process to transfer the rights of ownership and complete the purchase.  Many first time buyers who go it alone find that the ownership transfer of property can be a very difficult procedure.  VA Broward Florida Home Loan Centers has created a Broward Florida Home buying program to make Broward Florida Home buying affordable and easy.

Our Certified REALTORS® and Counselors have the knowledge and training to guide you through the steps to Broward Florida Home ownership.  Our dedication the veteran and their family, means that we will never charge you for this representation.

The following guide will give you a primer of the basic steps to buying a Broward Florida Home using your VA Broward Florida Home loan benefit.

What is a VA mortgage loan?

Like most home buyers, when you think about buying your Broward Florida Home, the first challenge you must consider is where do I get a loan to buy my Broward Florida Home.  Most Broward Florida Home buyers do not have the cash on hand to pay for a Broward Florida Home without using a mortgage.  When it comes to mortgages, there are many options and programs available.  For Broward Florida VA mortgage loan applicants and active duty military, the best program is the VA mortgage loan.  The VA mortgage loan was created in 1944 as a thank you to World War II veterans.

Benefits of the program include $0 down payment, $0 mortgage insurance and low interest rates.  And, with the VAHLC purchase program, $0 closing costs is also available.  In some cases, borrowers may also apply to receive a rebate of up to 2.75% of the purchase price (maximum rebate is $28,000).

Banks and lenders prefer the VA mortgage loan to a conventional loan because their position is guaranteed by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs.  In the event of a default or foreclosure, any loss the bank incurs will be paid by the VA.

This loan type is a perpetual benefit that can be used to purchase a primary residence over and over. Even if you are active duty and your current Broward Florida Home is financed with a VA mortgage loan, if you PCS to another area, you can use the VA mortgage loan program to buy a Broward Florida Home at your new duty station.

The programs financial offer is made to active duty, reservists, Veterans or surviving spouses. This loan can be used to buy almost any property as long as it is in live-able condition.

If you are eligible, you can purchase a Broward Florida Home and borrow up to 103.15% of total sale price of Broward Florida Home and not make any down payment.

Although the details of the program are not know by most real estate agents and loan officers, there are basic steps that are important for new buyers to follow when applying for a Veterans Broward Florida Home Loan and buying real estate afterwards.

Step 1. Get an VA Mortgage approval before you shop:

Once you have decided to buy a Broward Florida Home, your primary objective is to determine the price range that you qualify for.

This step is always number one and can’t be over emphasized.  The biggest reason is because many sellers will not accept an offer unless you have been pre-approved.  In fact, VAHLC certified buyers agents will not show you Broward Florida Homes unless you have been issued the pre-approval letter.

Your pre-approved loan amount will be based on the payment that fits your comfort range. Your VA Broward Florida Home Loan Center Counsellor will calculate your qualifying purchase amount by adding your comfort range to your existing debt.  Once this is done, they will obtain an automated underwriting system approval.  This data will let you know what price range of Broward Florida Homes to look at while staying within a monthly payment that is comfortable and affordable to you.

An important thing to consider is that VA mortgage loans are available to borrowers with less than perfect credit (Bad Credit VA mortgage loans) at the same interest rates as a VA mortgage loan for a borrower with excellent credit. The VA mortgage loan program is designed to provide the most benefit for the veteran.

Step 2. Get A Realtor:

After receiving your pre-approval and eligibility certificate, you know what your price range and monthly payment.  Your next step is to get representation.

VA Broward Florida Home Loan Centers will match you with a competent realtor who will represent you in the transaction at no cost and show you Broward Florida Homes.  It is important to note that not all real estate agents are realtors. To become a realtor a real estate agent must adhere to a code of ethics as well as be a member of the National Association of realtors.

Your VA Broward Florida Home Loan Centers Certified REALTOR ® will discuss your wants and needs. From there, they will show you Broward Florida Homes based on your criteria.

Step 3. Begin Your Broward Florida Home Search:

Once you know what price range you qualify for and who your agent is, the next step is to start your Broward Florida Home search.

Your VA Broward Florida Home Loan Centers Certified REALTOR® will take the criteria you have given them and search through the multiple listing service to find Broward Florida Homes that match your preferences, price range, school district or location.

After the agent has developed a customized list of Broward Florida Homes, they will conduct basic research and arrange a private showing to tour each Broward Florida Home.

Once you have found a Broward Florida Home that is right for you, your VA Broward Florida Home Loan Centers Certified buyer’s realtors will help you write the contract offer to purchase. Your agent is trained to get you the Broward Florida Home at the best price possible, with the best terms available.
