What Is a VA Loan

One of the Strongest Loan Benefits Available

VA loans are guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and offer $0 down, no monthly mortgage insurance, and some of the most competitive rates available. They are available to eligible veterans, active-duty service members, National Guard and Reserve members, and surviving spouses. Jacksonville is one of Florida's most military-dense metros — home to NAS Jacksonville, Naval Station Mayport, and a large veteran population — which makes the VA loan one of the strongest financing options for a large share of local buyers.

Instead of mortgage insurance, VA charges a one-time funding fee that can be rolled into the loan — and it's waived entirely for veterans with a service-connected disability rating. Nick helps you obtain your Certificate of Eligibility (COE) and structures the loan to keep your out-of-pocket at closing as close to zero as possible.

Common Questions

VA Loan FAQ — Jacksonville

Do I need a down payment for a VA loan in Jacksonville? +
No. With full VA entitlement, eligible veterans and active-duty service members can buy a primary residence in Jacksonville with $0 down and no monthly mortgage insurance. It is the strongest loan benefit available for those who qualify.
What is the VA funding fee? +
A one-time fee that replaces mortgage insurance — 2.15% of the loan for first use with $0 down (3.3% for subsequent use). It can be rolled into the loan, and it is waived entirely for veterans with a service-connected disability rating of 10% or higher.
Is there a VA loan limit in Duval County? +
With full entitlement there is no VA loan limit — you can finance above the county conforming limit with $0 down if you qualify on income and credit. Reduced or partial entitlement (for example, if you have another active VA loan) does carry a limit.
Can I refinance or reuse my VA benefit? +
Yes. VA entitlement is reusable across homes, and the VA IRRRL (Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan) lets existing VA borrowers refinance to a lower rate with minimal paperwork and, in most cases, no appraisal.
