Let Me Guide You Through the California VA Loan Process
The VA loan program offers Veterans and Active Duty Military a great way to purchase or refinance a home. VA is just about the only program still allowing 100% financing. VA loan program not only allows a Zero Down Payment, but also does not have Mortgage Insurance, which is required on Conventional loans with less than 20% down and on FHA loans no matter what the down payment is.
The VA loan process is easy, if you choose the right company and right Loan Officer. I focus on the VA loan program and have over 30 years of experience closing VA loans. The first step is to get Pre-qualified.
Prequalification
It only takes a quick 5 minute phone call so that I can prepare customized loan scenarios based on your goals, qualifications, and payment comfort level. Once you have a solid idea of the price range and type of property you wish to pursue (e.g. Condo or Single Family Home), the next step is to move forward with VA Loan PreApproval. Most sellers will not entertain an offer from a buyer unless they have been PreApproved by a Direct Lender.
PreApproval is Free and Quick-
Once PreApproved you will be able to confidently make offers on homes, knowing your financing has been taken care of and that you’ll be able to generally close escrow in 30 days or less.

2024 is still a great time to purchase a California home with a VA loan.
As of 2020 there are no longer any loan limits for VA 100% financing, California Veterans can purchase just about any home for any price in any county with $0 down.
Veterans buying a California home for $1,000,000 to $1,500,000 or higher with no down payment is becoming fairly common in 2024.
Taking out a VA mortgage loan on a new home purchase is a fantastic way to finance a property with a low interest rate, with little to no required down payment.
The rumor is that purchasing a home in California with a VA loan is very difficult.
But in actuality, the process is much easier than many believe. Of course it helps to work with a California Direct VA lender or loan officer who knows the in’s and out’s of the program.
