Tips To Easily Secure Disabled Veterans Loans

By April Briggs


Veterans have easier terms of credit that make their loans more affordable. Taking advantage of disabled veterans loans exemptions and benefits will reduce your repayment amount or increase the loan you get. In some cases, your level of disability will enable you access more cash or reduce the fees you pay on your loan.

Funding fees are exempted if you are receiving disability benefits and have not closed your veteran loan. With the waiver of funding fees, it becomes easier to access credit. There is a provision for refund if the loan is already closed and you are receiving benefits. It is the regional VA Loan Center that processes the refunds. The waiver or refund makes a significant difference during repayment.

The claim for refund remains legitimate as long as you continue receiving veteran disability benefits. If the necessary documents are available, your application will be processed in the shortest time. With a mortgage facility of 200,000 dollars and an exemption percentage of 2.15, you will save 4,300 dollars. When this money is used on other expenses, it makes a significant difference.

The other option available to veterans is Specially Adapted Housing grants/SAH. These are funds used to make modifications to a house so that the veteran finds it easier to live. You may use the grants to construct a house that comes with modifications. The money may also be used to remodel the house where the veteran will be living to suit his current condition. The money may also be used to offset the principle on a loan that you are already paying towards the modified house.

Special Housing Adaptation provides relief to a veteran seeking credit. It is used to make modifications to houses that are already owned by vets. The money is reserved for adapting the house to fit the needs of a veteran with disability. The grant may be used to buy a house with existing modifications.

There is a limit to Special Adaptation Housing and Special Housing Adaptation. SAH has a limit of 64,960 dollars while SHA has an upper annual limit of 12, 992. Any veteran who seeks to take advantage of these grants must be receiving disability benefits. With the exemption being annual, the amount is significant.

A veteran with disability stands to enjoy other credit and tax exemptions that have a significant effect on the principle amount and the fees paid on the loan. The exemption depends on individual states. For instance some counties require total disability for one to qualify while others provide exemptions to any veteran. Only a house modified or purchased under SAH or SHA grant qualifies for exemption.

With a Mortgage Credit Certificate you can claim credit refund for the amount paid as interest on your mortgage. The amount or formula used in calculating varies from one state to the other. A veteran receiving benefits can use them as income to boost their chances of securing a loan. The benefits qualify because they are stable, reliable and expected to continue.
