- Washington VA Loans

Washington VA (Veteran’s Administration) loans are available to veterans, certain members of the selected reserve, active duty personnel, and certain categories of spouses. Like Washington FHA loans, VA loans are guaranteed by the government, so that the lender is protected from loss, therefore making the loan more affordable and available to people who otherwise wouldn’t be able to obtain a loan. The Veteran’s Administration doesn’t give out any loans, only insures them. The VA loans are made by private lenders, like us, at lower costs because of more security. There are also no prepayment penalties on any Washington VA loans if you want to pay your mortgage off early. There are many ways to tailor your Washington VA loan to fit your needs.
