Far and away, the most significant benefit of a VA loan
is the borrower's ability to purchase with no money down.
Apart from the government's UDSA's Rural Development home
loan and Fannie Mae's Home Path, it's all but impossible
to find a lending option today that provides borrowers
with 100 percent financing.
VA loans also come with less stringent underwriting standards
and requirements than conventional loans. In fact, about 80
percent of VA borrowers could not have qualified for a
conventional loan. These loans also come with no private
mortgage insurance (PMI), a monthly expense that conventional
borrowers are required to pay unless they put down at least
20 percent of the loan amount.
Down payment as low as 0%.
Competitive interest rates that are routinely lower than conventional rates
No prepayment penalties
Higher allowable debt-to-income ratios than for many other loans
Streamlined refinancing loans that require no additional underwriting
"Michael Visser took great care of us on our mortgage. On top of that, he gave us other business advice that was extremely helpful. He knows much more than just the mortgage business. And that is what sets him apart from the competition. Fantastic rate to boot!"
"Mike Visser with Axent Funding has done both my mortgage and my refinance on my house. He was referred to me by my real estate agent. My real estate agent sends most of her clients to Mike for mortgage processing. Both of the loans he has arranged for me have been very smooth. He always makes sure that I am aware of what is going on in the loan process. He made sure I stayed alert to action items I needed to complete to keep the loan process progressing. This last Refinance I thought it would take about a month but it only took 18 days from application to closing including weekends. I have gotten emails from Mike at 11:30 at night so I know he works long hours and weekends to keep the loan process short. I had shopped my refinance at other places and they charged a lot more in fees."
"We just closed on our home and I can say that Axent Funding was great to work with every step of the way. We had peace of mind and confidence throughout the entire process because of Michael's experience. Our confidence was validated when we closed on schedule without any surprises, with a great rate! Thanks Michael!"
