In this brief video, Jay Quigley highlights a common knowledge gap among veterans regarding VA home loan benefits. He cites a recent survey showing that nearly 70% of veterans are unaware that VA loans typically require no down payment and often do not require private mortgage insurance (PMI). Quigley argues that this lack of awareness may be preventing eligible service members and veterans from leveraging the extra buying power these loans provide. He advises viewers to start with a trusted lender to explore eligibility and loan options, and then to contact him for personalized guidance on maximizing their purchasing potential.

You've probably heard of the Veterans Affairs, or VA, home loan benefit, but do you know what it offers? In a recent survey, almost 70% of veterans didn't know that VA home loans usually don't require a down payment, or that VA loans don't necessarily require private mortgage insurance. This tells me that most veterans aren't taking full advantage of their benefit. And if you've served or are currently active duty, maybe that's holding you back from buying, when it doesn't have to. Wanna know what's possible for you? Start with a trusted lender who can walk you through VA loan options and what you're eligible for. Then let's chat about how you can use that extra buying power.
