  • No down payment required for Kentucky VA Loans
  • There are closing costs on all home purchases and refinances, however, on purchases, VA allows the home seller to give the home buyer up to a 4.0% sellers concession towards the home buyer’s closing costs. If the home buyer is short on closing costs or if the home seller is not willing to give a sellers concession, the Veteran can get a lender’s credit to cover part or all of the closing costs
  • There is no monthly  mortgage insurance premium on Kentucky VA Loans
  • Here are VA Credit Requirements:
    • VA does not have a mandatory minimum credit score requirement
    • VA lets the lender to set the minimum credit score requirement. Most lenders will want a 620 credit score nowadays. 
    • VA does not have a maximum debt to income ratio requirement. If you loan pre-approval shows a refer eligible, the max debt to income ratios are usually limited to 41% for the new house payment and your current bills on the credit report of your gross income. For example, lets say you make $3000 a month, and you have $400 in monthly bills on the credit report. Then your max house payment would be $830.00
    • 2 year waiting period to qualify for a VA mortgage loan after a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, short sale, and recorded dates of foreclosure and/or deed in lieu of foreclosure
    • If you have deferred student loans that are deferred for at least 12 or more months, it will be exempt from from debt to income ratio calculations

When can you get a VA Mortgage again after a foreclosure or short sale?

Foreclosure, Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure, and short sales:

Kentucky VA Mortgage Guidelines for getting a VA mortgage after a foreclosure or Short Sale?

See guidelines below:

VA
  • Follows guidelines provided for bankruptcies filed under straight liquidation (Chapter 7)
  • 2 years from transfer date on Commissioner’s or Transfer deed 
  • If the bankruptcy was discharged within 1 to 2 years, it is probably not possible to determine that the applicant is a satisfactory credit risk unless both of the following requirements are met
  1. The applicant has obtained credit subsequent to the bankruptcy and has made satisfactory payments over a continued period of time, and 
  2. The bankruptcy was caused by circumstances beyond the control of the applicant such as unemployment, prolonged strikes, medical bills not covered by insurance and the circumstances are verified.   Divorce is not viewed as a circumstance beyond the applicants control
  •  If the foreclosure or Deed-in-Lieu of a Foreclosure was on a VA loan, the applicant may not have full entitlement.  Information on entitlement not restored and remaining entitlement available can only be determined by borrower’s COE (Certificate of Eligibility)


VA loans are for veterans and active duty military personnel. The loan requires no down payment and no monthly mi premiums, saving you on the monthly payment. It does have an funding fee like USDA, but it is higher starting at 2% for first time use, and 3% for second time use. The funding fee is financed into the loan, so it is not something you have to pay upfront out of pocket.
VA loans can be made anywhere, unlike the USDA restrictions, and there is no income household limit and the max loan is $453,000 in Kentucky
Most VA lenders I work with will want a 580 credit score.
VA requires 2 years removed from bankruptcy or foreclosure.
