Get a Second VA Loan
Bonus/Remaining Entitlement can open up opportunities to build wealth. This option allows eligible veterans who have utilized their VA loan benefit to purchase a primary residence to obtain another VA loan concurrently or in the future, even if the first one is still active. By leveraging bonus entitlement, eligible consumers can maximize their home financing potential in various ways.
Key Considerations for obtaining a Second VA Loan
1. Entitlement: To qualify for bonus entitlement, you must have remaining benefits left, which is determined by the amount of your current entitlement in use and the VA county loan limit in the county where you will be purchasing the new property.
2. Occupancy Requirements: As with the current residence, the VA will require you to occupy the newly purchased property as their primary residence. Understanding and adhering to occupancy requirements is critical to meeting the requirements of the VA Lender Handbook.
