The Veteran’s Administration announced that the VA limits for potential 100% financing has increased for the first time since 2006. VA loan limits match the conforming loan limits set by the Federal Housing Finance Agency. Basically, this means the primary limit increased from $417,000 to $424,100. Additionally, high balance counties had an increase as well which is listed further below.
How much Veterans and Service members can borrow is based on the Veteran’s entitlement. With full basic entitlement of $36,000, a Veteran may qualify up to the full loan limit of $424,100 (or more if a high cost area). For Veterans looking to borrow over $424,100 in counties other than the ones listed, you could use a VA jumbo loan . VA jumbo loans could allow you to put down a small percentage and can often be much more favorable than a conventional jumbo loan.
