Military & VA
Moving to Northern Virginia on orders?
Sam helps service members, veterans and military families use their VA loan benefit and find the right home for the commute — even when you're buying from out of state.
VA loan basics
Little or no down payment
Eligible buyers with full entitlement can often buy with $0 down.
No monthly PMI
VA loans don't charge private mortgage insurance, which lowers your payment.
Funding fee
Most borrowers pay a one-time VA funding fee; some, such as veterans receiving VA disability compensation, are exempt.
Certificate of Eligibility
Your lender can pull your COE to confirm your benefit and entitlement.
Details depend on your service and entitlement. Confirm with a VA-approved lender or VA.gov home loans.
Where to look near your base
Marine Corps Base Quantico
Prince William and Stafford counties
Fort Belvoir
Fairfax County, near Lorton and Springfield
