5 THINGS THAT YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW ABOUT VA LOANS

There are 5 things that you probably don't know about VA loans according to a blog post that I recently came across.  But I am going to add in a 6th because of it's importance...and with 10% of Alaskans being retired military, there are a lot of VA loans that are used to buy Mat-Su Valley real estate.  

This is a link to the blog post that I came across that very well summed up a couple of the myths regarding VA loans that many consumers have. 5 Things that you probably don't know about VA loans.  And while those 5 are quite valid, I think that there is a 6th thing that could apply here in Alaska as well with the high amount of disabled veterans.  And #6 could be one of the most important of all.  Did you know that if you have a service-connected disability of 10% or higher that you are exempt from paying the VA funding fee?
