2 days agoAre VA Loans Assumable? What It Means for Veterans, Buyers, and Sellers
Yes, most VA loans are assumable with approval from the lender and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). This means a qualified buyer can step into the seller's VA-backed loan and continue payments under the same terms. Applies to most loans after March 1, 1988. Older VA loans may have different requirements. Buyer qualifications matter. The buyer must meet the lender's credit, income, and debt-to-income standards.
